Agreed. I have the SE, and probably would have gone with the 745 if it had been available. IMO the 745's 3x radiator and fans would give you much better performance than the SE.

what do you guys think? Is everything there?
I think your fortunate to have such excellent help.

In my opinion the weakest link is the radiator, being only single-sized. If you need single-sized to fit in your case, that's fine and your performance will be too. But if you want to kick it up a notch, and have the room, or are willing to have the rad external, hang it on the back, etc., I'd go with the Black Ice Pro III (triple sized) for an extra $12. (DangerDen has it). I'm guessing it would lower temps much more than $12 spent anywhere else, even if you only put one fan on it.

I don't mean to muddy the waters, but there's just an option in case you're interested.

Have fun!

DrDeville: Thanks for the compliment! I chose that rad because of the budget we were working within. I told him that with a system like this, he can always upgrade later quite easily. Your suggestion is good especially if he can scrape up the extra dough.

And no Akhen, you won't need any fittings. Everything you're gonna need comes shipped to you. And personally, I suggest tie wraps instead of clamps. They work just as good and you can get UV reactive ones!

you can always get a heater core for the rad. I've been looking and I think I may do that just cause they're a lot cheaper. you can get a 77 boneville heater core from autozone for $18.
