where should I start looking if I'm interested in liquid cooling my system? I know very little about it and would like to start my research and possibly end up liquid cooling my system
 
Tell us what you have, what you want cooled, you goals (over-clocking, quiet, appearance).

I would strongly advise you dismiss any all-in-one solution such as Thermaltake. It sounds easier but you will pay for it in the end. There are some great brands to choose from including Danger Den, Swiftech, D-tek, EK, and Koolance just to name a few. My personal first choice is Danger Den but then I am sponsored by them (also sponsored by Koolance so consider that my disclaimers) but any of the vendors I listed will have great parts.

We need to know:
1. Which case . . .this will determine what radiator we can use. If you are open to a new case that greatly opens up the options.
2. What do you want to cool? A CPU and a GPU? Two GPUS? Three GPUS?
3. What are your goals? Do you want insane over-clocks or just maybe you want something that looks really pimp are going for the cool factor.
4. What is your budget?
 
I can give a +1 to Danger Den. I have built several systems with their products and they are great. Also, people around here love the D-Tek blocks as well.
Definitely stay clear of all in one solutions. The only one that is relatively ok is the swiftech h20, but I would only recommend that if you are doing the CPU only.
