I want to WC a I5 3750K and 2 gtx 670.

I am looking into getting this pump and this aftermarker top.

XSPC D5 Vario (Body + Screwring)
EK-D5 X-TOP CSQ - Acetal

Will this get good flow when I have a Hardware Lab GTX 360 and 240 running Gentle Typhoons 1850prm on push, what about temps?

Is this all I need or do I need extra parts to attach it to the case.

Will the rads fit in this case, Xigmatek Elysium?
 
Hi, I know the case is HUGE ;) that is why I bought it.

The GTX rads I looked up on skinee labs and saw that they are very flow restrictive so I might buy 2 pumps and place them around the loop. Not sure, but still a possibility.

The Gentle Typhoon 1850 rpm, will be in push or pull, not sure which is better throught rads, I will have the bottom or front rad intaking air behind the rad and the top will probaly be the same but pushing the warm air out. I might go push/pull if I have enough space, again not sure. Some advice would be good, cheers.

Does the D5 with the top that I selected have enough head pressure and would it need any other bits to mount to case?

I looked at the review of the Switch 810 and it was good, but there was not enough room for push/pull on a thick rad (60mm) up top so it really restricts my choices to a slim rad which I dont think has the ability to cool an I5 3750K OC to 4.8Ghz 24/7 and 2 GTX 670. So no go for me.

Cheers.

I will be using the D5 at speed setting at 5 as I wear headphones as I'm gaming otherwise I would always have music playing. If I run the Gentle typhoons at 1850 rpm and the pump on speed on 5 would it still effect the flow.
 
If I run the pump on speed 5 will the flow still be good.
I will be running the fans on 1850 rpm when im gaming as I wear a headset.

Generally noise aint an issue.
