Water Cooling
I'm thinking of going with WC for my PC. I'm looking at getting:

I'm hoping to get 3.2 or 3.6GHz 24/7. (I'm going to go to bed.) Thanks!

FEED THE BEAST WITHIN!!!

Yeah, you need some better fans. Stay away from anything koolance. It's over priced crap. Go with this or this for a pump, this or this for a res, or instead of a res do a "T" line with this

If you wanted to get to 3.2 on b3, I think a high end air would do it for you. (Thermalright U120E...)
__________________I would probably recommend against the koolance pump/reservoir. Koolance doesn't exactly have the best quality of WC items. I would recommend a swiftech MCP655 with a Swiftech Micro Reservoir or they do have a pump/res combo that's decent. And to cut costs, you don't really need a hose cutter. A knife works well and will save you $10?.

or get this kit, way cheaper than what you configured, and comes with everything you need. you can get a 360 rad with it.

Yeah I would at least go with what Joe is using^^^^...I like the 120x38mm fans on my rads to I think they scavenge air through the rad better, they have higher air pressure...I use the higher cfm Sunon and pana's on mine I really like the GTX it cools great...
