Just looking for a little help regarding radiators. I'm thinking of putting together a m-itx system in a Lian-li PC-Q08 and water cooling the CPU (i5-3570k). Currently I'm thinking of using a single 140mm rad at the front of the case with the fan acting as an intake. My first problem is I'm unsure which radiator to pick, atm I'm looking at the Hardware Labs Black Ice SR1 140, does anyone have any knowledge of this rad? Do the other 140mm rads perform better or worse or is it all negligible?

Also should I be concerned that this will be blowing warmed air into the case and cause increased temps on motherboard etc? Would a 120mm rad on the exhaust vent be more healthy for the system as a whole?
