Id like to go for a wc setup for cpu only, currently running a 4.5ghz 3570k, (will be changed for a 3770k soon). Gpu is a wf 670, going sli with theese shortly so no need to wc those. Would a 240 rad be ok with a cpu such as the 3770k, my current 3570k hits 64c on the lowest core, 75c on the highest at 4.5ghz. Cooled by an alpenfohn k2 cooler with dual akasa piranhas. My case is a bitfenix shinobi xl, or i have the option of modding and using a Lian Li A70F full tower case.
 
A 240mm rad should be fine try going for one which is thicker. I'm using 2 x 240mm AlphaCool NeXXXos UT60 60mm thick rads but I'm cooling a 7970 along side a 3770K overcooked to 4.6
