Water cooling a 200T

Im looking into improving the cooling in my Biostar IDEQ 200T, cuz right now the thing sounds like a blender with ice in it. The heatsink fan rattles loud as hell, and the fans on the video card are no slouch in the decible department either. So Im looking to find some way to fit a water cooling setup entirely inside or at least attached to the thing without it looking like frankenstein. The setup has to be enough to cool a 3ghz northwood and 6800GT, both of which are naturally overclocked, albeit only slightly. So that rules out anything simple like just 1 80mm radiator I would assume. I could fit a 120 in there if I got rid of the dvd drive for an external, but Ive already got usb stuff all over the place, and my desk looks like spilled intestines. Ive got a dremel, so I think I can make the radiator and dvd drive work with some effort, but then I cant find anywhere to stick a pump and reservoir. Those pumps theyve got at xoxide thatve been discontinued would work perfectly, but cant find them anywhere. So I guess what Im looking for is any input from someone who mightve tried this before, or some guidance on where I can find a teeny tiny pump to stick in there somewhere. Id even thought of getting a globalwin silent stream just to cannibalize the pump/waterblock combo it has and attatch it to a bigger radiator and video block. Anywho, any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.
