I'm planning on getting a new intel box next month and was looking for some opinions and suggestions from other people. Currently, i have most parts, but am in need of a lga775 block, any suggestions, here are the parts i alreayd have, i might need another radiator (so i think). Any suggestions, also the pump is similar to that one, but with a mini reservoir on it! :)

i plan on running this chip (Q6600) and liquid setup on a GIGABYTE GA-N680SLI-DQ6.

board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128037

pump: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/5...p_Native_38_120_GPH.html?tl=g30c107s154#blank

radiator: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/2...ck_w_Customizable_Fittings.html?tl=g30c95s159

reservoir: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/2..._M3_525_Reservoir_CL-W0031.html?tl=g30c97s168

i plan on running it all inside a ANTEC P180 case. Any suggestions on a good block, or better liquid parts, or board, or anything for this new system i am putting together?

Thanks for checking this out, if anyone has any opinions please let me know! :)
 
The P182 has ports out the back for tubing. Not sure if you're putting your radiator externally, but I had entertained that idea a little bit.. mounting the radiator outside on the rear 120mm fan..

Dtek Fuzion is one of the best blocks you can get for a quad core.

sounds great, and i will look into it right now.

also i know the case has 2 rubber ports on it, but i will be mounting the radiator inside, do you guys recommend another radiator to help cooling, or?
 
Usinf a single fan radiator for a Quadcore isn't a great idea. Your temps probably won't be that much better than air with the small of a radiator, and the rad that you chose if pretty much a copy of the BIX.
I'd go with either a double or a triple for as much heat as you're going to have. A triple would be best. The Swiftech MCR320 is a great rad.

only problem is i'm using a antec P180, and i only have 2 accessible 120mm fans that would take radiators with no problems, should i just stick with air cooling for this setup? but i really would like to get my liquid parts out of the box they are sitting in... please let me know what you think. becuase i also would not like to have the fans for the radiators on full speed all the time.. then the machine would be very loud, should i just go with a nice air cooler?

let me know thanks

sorry to drop my thread, but i have decided to stick with air, and get a great cooler and fan for my setup. Saves hassle, and many things that i just now took into consideration.
i ordered a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme with a SilenX IXP-76-18 fan.

Thanks for the tips! hopefully i can get a stable system, thanks again :)
 
You can always use a Swiftech RadBox to hang the radiator off the back of your case. I've used them a few times.
