My Setup, Suggestions?

[Linkin Park]

I plan on buying a watercooling setup i thought i'd ask the pro's what they think of my current setup: this is all from the dangerden website:

RBX AMD
Maze 4 gpu Cooler
Danger Den 12 Volt D4 Pump, 1/2
Tygon R3603 1/2 Inch ID Tubing per Foot(5 Ft)
Clear UV Danger Den Single Bay Reservoir
Black Ice Micro II Radiator - Black, 1/2"(dual 80mm)

is this a good setup and everything. Will i need anythign else such as fittings or adaptors or is this it?

Also is it safe to transport your WC case if everything is bolted down casue i tend to go to a lot of lans and dont want to spring a leak. thanks for your feedback - mike

get the high poly res instead its less likely to crack and you go to lans so its a plus.

I recommend using Cleaflex instead of Tygon. It'll be easier on the pocketbook...

does it come w/ clamps or do i have to buy those seperatly?

I read somewhere that a single 120MM radiator is better then dual 80MM's is this true?

a single 120 fan will pull more CFM than dual 80's. (Unless ur unsing a crap 120 and awesome 80s) so on an equal sized rad the single 120 will cool better than dual 80s. For best results just go with a dual 120 rad. A 77 Bonnevile heatercore is just $20.00 at ur local big box auto chain and 2 120 fans fit perfect. A much better choice than crazy overpriced "ultrablackXtremepolariceflow" rads.

you will need to buy clamps and possibly fittings, barbs, etc, they are all available from home Depot and other hardware stores.

Do you know a Heatercore thats just a single 120MM cause i cant fit a dual 120MM in my case.

Sells a single 120 for $30. Dual $35. By the time you buy the $20 heatercore, fittings, and the work you put into it, I figure it's not any more epensive just buying theirs. Plus I know for a fact theirs are either copper or brass. No danger of getting an aluminum one.

Yes, that's true. More radiator surface area, and one 120mm fan is better than two 80mm's.

Im Curious do i need one of those PC Relay things and what specificly do they do. Do you guys recomend getting them?

The relay is if you get a 112V pump so you can hook it up direct to your comps 12V PSU. Your already getting the DD 12V pump so you dont need the relay. Its a very nice pump too.
