Default Lian-Li PC-G75 water cooling help

I have not ever built a water cooling system and i am in need of expert help.
I have read some of the threads in the forum but didnt find what i was looking for, I only want a single loop and only plan to cool the CPU.
I'm building a new rig at the end of the month and here are the specs.

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
ASUS RAMPAGE FORMULA LGA
CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 800Mhz
ABS Tagan BZ Series BZ900 900W
XFX GX280NZDF9 GeForce GTX 280 1GB 512-bit GDDR3
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD7500AAKS 750GB 7200 RPM
SAMSUNG 20X DVD±R DVD Burner

Thats everything and of course the Lian-Li PC-G75 Full-Tower case.
I would like to fit the entire system inside the case, which is the main reason i chose a full-tower. Should I go with a in-bay system or build my own with a controller in the bay? I am also on a budget and cant really spend more than about 200$ thanks in advance for the help.

this is the system i will get if i dont build one of my own.

A 240mm rad, pump, fans, tubing, reservoir (t-line probably), and a CPU block will be what you need. That might be hard to come by for under $200.

You're going to have to get creative and mod out the top of the case (or bottom) or hang it off the back to house the rad.

What did you have in mind for mounting?

I would suggest picking up some used parts. Is noise a concern?

I was thinking of mounting it in whichever powersupply bay i dont use, i could care less about noise but i dont want it to sound like a backup generator whenever i use it. like i said i havnt done a water cooling loop before so i dont know what things look like in relation to other things but from what i've measured it will fit in the extra power supply bay. and what is the diff. from a t-line and a rad.?

sorry i forgot to put the backup water system i chose.
