I've done some recent mods (pics here) to the tower and the temps of the system have gone up a few degrees. I was able to bring them back down a bit using a push pull configuration on the radiator but it's considerably louder now because one of them is running at the full 12v. I was looking at the 3 X 120mm and the 2 X 120mm that has the LCD and res built in.

I figure they will work just fine but I wanted to double check. The reason for going with these radiators is because the hole up top wont allow me to fit a dual fan radiator toward the back and one mounted toward the front will take more space than I'm willing to part with in the drive bay area (plans for stuff up there :D ). I like the res and display of the 2 fan model a lot, it would make bleeding my loop a lot easier than it is right now.

Now, on to the fittings. I like the Koolance pressure fittings, such a clean look. I hate the metal screw type and the plastic ones I'm currently using arent much more attractive. These are the fittings I've been eyeballing:

Can these fittings be used with the TDX block? I havent been able to find the thread size anywhere (or the depth of the threads). I believe the radiator only comes in a 3/8 setup so I'd probably change the hole system over to 3/8. Appreciate any comments.
 
Decided to go with the 3 X 120 Swiftech and make a similar shroud myself, just wouldnt be much of a mod with the Koolance system :D

I would like some input on the fittings though.
