Default Gigabyte Merc with Swiftech Apogee

my fren is selling me his casing (bout 3 months old) : Gigabyte 3D Mercury.http://http://www.guru3d.com/article/cases/444/3/
i currently have a Swiftech Apogee CPU block (http://www.swiftnets.com/)

so....instead of using the CPU block that come with the Mercury, could i connect the apogee to the loop?
will the pump be able to cope, since i gonna use Asus Maximus whihc has the chipset cooling too...would this give too much resistance?

wat if i add another radiator (2X120cm)...u guyz think this would work?

I already told you don't get cheap watercooling. Pump would most likely die sooner from all that additional restriction.

To answer most of your questions: (1) a fridge cannot cool a PC (2) 64-bit OS for over 3.4GB (3) If a PCIe card fits, it will work (4) Resolution, not screen size (5) If you have a question, it is not news (6) Report, not respond to Spam (7) Single/Non-Modular Rail PSUs are NOT better than Multi-Rail/Modular

Do a quick search under the water cooling section. There are about 10 topics a week about someone's first time...

MCP655 for pump

Danger den fill port

Do a search on Newegg for any ATX full size cases or go to xoxide.com and get a Chenming 901b.
