ok guys, id like to set up water cooling in my first rig

ive decided to go with the thermaltake Bigwater (this is my decision, u cant change it now). This is my show rig, performance isnt a big issue, ive got my second rig for that.

Anyway, So im going to buy, (ignore the prices, AU dollars)

a) the termaltake bigwater kit - http://www.pccasegear.com.au/prod1706.htm

b) aquabay M1 http://www.pccasegear.com.au/prod2793.htm

c) aquabay M2 http://www.pccasegear.com.au/prod2794.htm

now, i can figure out how to install the bigwater on its own, but how the feg do i incorporate the Aquabay M1 and M2 into the system. The aquabay M2 essentially replaces Thermaltake Bigwater kids included radiator (so i can figure that much out), ant the M1 is bascailyl just a level or flow indicator or whatervrethefuck.

Anyway, my main question is what sequence to I have theses things running in.

I mean does it go Pump - radiator - CPu block - waterleve/flow indicator or wahtever - then pump?

a diagram would be totally awesome if anyone has time to do one

and also, is a resovoir essential?

thanks guys
 
I wouldn't recommend the big water kit, but whatever floats your boat...

There is a diagram on the page you linked us to

isnt' that pump have a res built in too?

I would separate your heat dissipation devices between your waterbocks, so both get cool water in.
