At the moment, I have this watercooling kit which is all I am using:

- EK-KIT H3O - Supreme LT 120

and the pump/reservoir are:

- EK-DCP 2.2 Pump
- EK-Reservoir Combo DCP 2.2

I want to add a watercooling block and I'm guessing I'll need either a newer, bigger rad, or another rad to go with the current 120mm. What I can't get my head around is what order everything will go in, when the GPU block is installed, and what should I get, a bigger Rad to replace my current 120mm, or get another 120mm/120.2mm and add that with my normal ek rad. Also, will the pump/reseviour be alright to power the loop, or will there need to be modifications? Finally! What do you "watercoolers" prefer, a gpu block, or a full cover...I have a ATI Radoen 5850 by the way. Many thanks in advance..WIRY

Full block is better for cooling the whole card, saves messing about sticking little heat sinks on chips.

Rad wise you could add a 120.2 or replace you 120.1 with a 120.3 which should take care of the heat, pump and everything should be fine.

Order wise is what ever suits your case and rads, mine is res>pump>GPU>CPU>120.1 rad>120.2 rad then back into the res.
