So i'm going to upgrade my current system, which sits like this :

2000+
512mb PC3200
KD7
2 X 40GB
R9800pro
10X sony burner
16X DVD
48X external artec burner

I'll be adding these things :

mobile 2500+
another 512mb pc3200
custom made case (wait till you see it ;) )
WATERCOOLING.

I need some help with the watercooling planning part, as I've never ventured into this before. I'll be running two powersupplies, one for the water & opticals, one for the system & HDD's. That I can probably take care of. What I would really like to know is how I'd set up the cooling system If I wanted to watercool jut the CPU versus the CPU & GPU.

rad before blocks? rad after blocks? how many gph? which way should the flow go? duh? what would a flow diagram look like for all three options?? (cpu only/cpu+gpu/cpu+gpu+chipset)

So far I'm looking at buying all my parts @ bigfoot.com, so what is the temp difference when looking at something like

this or something like this or something like this ?
 
pump > cpu > gpu > nb > radiator > res(filling loop in your case) > pump

thats how id do it

btw: those kits may be cheaper if you buy directly from swittech
