Well I'm back :D!!! to make your life a litle bit more boring :D ;)

I have make 2 differents setups, what you think will work better?

~ Setup 1:
Pump: Supreme Mag Drive 5
Radiator: ThermoChill HE120.2
Radiator Fan: Sunon 120mm Fan
CPU Water Block: Danger Den Copper TDX Block for Athlon64 754/939/940
GPU Water Block: Danger Den NV-68 (Nvidia 6800 series) 1/2" ID Water Block
Tubing: Tygoon 1/2 tubing

~ Setup 2:
Pump: Supreme Mag Drive 5
Radiator: ThermoChill HE120.2
Radiator Fan: Sunon 120mm Fan
CPU Water Block: Swiftech MCW6002-64™ Water Block - AMD® K8, Athlon™ 64 & Opteron™
GPU WaterBlock: Is between: a maze4 acetal, the Danger Den NV-68 (Nvidia 6800 series) and the Swiftech MCW50 Video Water Block - BLUE
Tubing: Tygoon again

What I want to cool?
My AMD 64, 3700 cpu
My eVGA 6800GT 256 mb

If you think any component from setup1 will work better in setup2 just tell me!!!....

Now for the Lian LI case owners who have a w.c system working on them... what you would pick a V1000 or a 6077, I am between those... don't know what to pick...

Now, maybe this is an scrub question, but what works better 1/2 components or 3/8 components? I keep trying to figure it out, but I can't :(

Best Regards,

The only thing different between the two are the cpu/gpu block choices.
The TDX & 6002 cool about the same, but the 6002 can be used on different sockets with extra mounting brackets, so if you arent looking for too much upgradeability, then you might just base your choice on looks.
WCing ram is pretty pointless when ramsinks are plenty enough unless youre doing extreme ram OCing, so a Maze 4 & ramsinks would be plenty enough.

Also, get 1/2" tubing, its free additional flow over 3/8" (more flow=heat moving off of the cpu faster), and since youre getting Tygon (3603), you dont have to worry about kinks that wouldnt happen with 3/8".
 
So the final setup should look like this:

~ Setup:
Pump: Daner Supreme Mag Drive 5
Radiator: ThermoChill HE120.2
Radiator Fan: Sunon 120mm Fan
CPU Water Block: if selecting for the look Danger Den Copper TDX Block for Athlon64 754/939/940, if selecting for save 10$ Swiftech MCW6002-64™
GPU Water Block: Danger Den MAZE4 GPU - 1/2"
Tubing: Tygoon 1/2 tubing

Now, I've found a pretty good PolarFLO VGA cooler: http://www.frozencpu.com/ex-blc-118.html

Will it peform better than a Maze4 ?

Thanks!

using the maze 4 GPU acetyl top waterblock as opposed to the swiftech or the polar flow would let you ensure that there is no aluminium in your loop, as an additional guard against galvanic corrosion.
 
So the PolarFLO will peform better?

also a litle update

~ Setup:
Radiator FAN: Delta 120mm

Thanks...
 
The Maze4 cools better, as it uses copper instead of aluminum, which is better than aluminum in every thermal aspect.
