I am building a new pc, and not sure as to what I want to do. You can see the start of it here http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1499355

I have never ventured into watercooling and with the new build would like to try it. The case is the lancool pc-k62 and from what I have read, will not fit a radiator inside of the case. Is there a radiator that will fit inside? If not what would be the best option? My desk is not that big and I would like to keep it as small as possible if it is going outside of the case.The watercooling setup would be more about looks than cooling. I just want one loop right now for s775, but easy option to add in a GPU later. I really like the the look of an exposed reservoir, either in a tube inside the case or in a bay. I want white tubing to match the rest of the case. I have zero parts as of now, so I need a full setup to run a loop just to the CPU with an easy option to add in a GPU later when I upgrade my card. I have read quite a bit on water set ups, but have no working knowledge. Any and all advice much appreciated. Thanks!
 
The case has two holes in the back for tubing, so I think I am going to mount the radiator outside of the case, in the back. Will a small 120mm radiator be enough to cool the cpu and a 5770?
