Hi everyone
I am new to water cooling, but not to building my own computers. I have not yet built my system, as i am waiting for i7 / Nehalm
I have however bought my case (TJ07), and radiator (HW GTX 480), with pump Ehiem HPPS 12v, along with a 5.25 Fass-O-Matic drive bay reservoir.
Now my questions are:
I plan to run it: Pump (sitting at base of TJ07 case) > Radiator (external rad box) > CPU > GPU (x1) > RAM > Reservoir > Pump
Any help / suggestions will be greatly appreciated quys and gals
Kind Regards
Phil

Now my questions are:
- I have 1/2 barbs throughout, but the outlet to the HPPS pump is smaller (at 8mm) than 1/2, so i am thinking i should change to a Laing D5??
- Any ideas as to what i should use for a rad box for a quad rad with 8 fans on shrouds? I was thinking of constructing a box out of MDF, as i want to deaden the sound of those huge fans!!
- Will one Laing D5 be enough to run the system?
