Worth water cooling?

Ok, Long time lurker...extremely long.

Basically, I have this issue with my case. I know how people don't like cheap little gaming cases, but I'm using it as a base on which to mod. Please don't kill me for getting this case :p


Anyway, since I do a bit of water cooling, I've already selected most of the parts for this A8N SLI Deluxe system, to be a FX-55SD/7xxx SLi, gaming monster. Viva la 939.

Everything is 1/2" ID

Swiftech STORM
Dual BIM
Maze4 Chipset
Maze4 Acetal
Typhoon Dual 5.25" bay reservoir in UV green
DD12V-D5 - Already have a rheobus
All tied together with tygon tubing.

Now since I usually work with 120mm radiators, I have the urge for more cooling.

Bare in mind I've already taken out most of the premods, and since I don't have a cam ( all money towards computer parts), this is about where I stand.

Ghetto-shop'd.

If I'm throwing in a dual bay res, and a few hard drives, (raptor, and few 300gb seagates), think I would have enough room for a second BIM(single 80mm), and would it be even worth it?
 
I have that exact case.You should be able to fit everything in there with room to spare.I have a single 80 mm rad in the rear and another since 80mm rad on the window
I would just keep that rad you have in the rear.I dont see any reason to have more cooling.
 
I was looking for something half decent to put in the window 80mm fan slot, the grill it came with is nifty at all, but I'd rather have something with water in the window instead of a dinky little glowing 80mm fan.

Maybe a water flow indictator...
