ok, this is what i've decided so far:

MAZE4 for Intel 478 Processors – $34.95
Acetal Version MAZE4GPU – $44.95
Black Ice Xtreme Radiator - $65.99
Danger Den Bay Reservoir High-Density Polyethylene - $17.95
Tygon 3603 Tubing - ~$10.00
Arctic Silver 5 - $7.29

Thus, all i need is a fan to go with my radiator and a pump.

recommend away =p

P.S. i have a 400W powersupply, is this enough?
 
I'm running a DD4 (swifterch mcp 650?) pump and like It a lot, quiet, small, easy to mount, also has 14 feet of head.

As for fans... you want quiet or max performance? I've got a panaflow and like it pretty good.
 
Im lazy, sorry, are you looking for an 80mm or 120mm fan, and are you looking for a high performance fan, which is crazy loud, or quieter solution?

if you need a 120mm, you can get that blue enermax fan (too lazy to link/get model number)
it has variable speed fan so it can be a quiet fan, or a high speed/loud fan.
 
loud as hell because i know air is moving (i'll have less fans running than i do now, so its an improvement even with a beastly 120MM).

let me look for that enermax
 
i dont mean to triple post, but i've done some research.

So the Eheim 1250 seems to be a popular pump. My only question is on the suction connection it has 3'4'' tubing, while the pump out has 1/2''. Doesnt the black ice resivoir just have 1/2'' connections? So basically, how do i fit 1/2'' hose on a 3/4'' connector on the Eheim?
 
You would have to get an adapter, which would kill the flow.

If you are willing to spend the money go with an MCP650 12 VDC Pump, it's probably the best you can get right now.

If you wan't something CHEAP, with less quality, get a Via Aqua 1300+, it's what I have and I love it. Should be able to find it for $20.00 shipped.

Not really, many many people use this pump and I've never seen a 3/4" water loop, mainly 1/2"

I've had two of these pumps, they're loud and they don't last long (~1 year if you're lucky). I'm infinitely more satisfied with my Eheim 1250.
