haha, not sure they'll still be using those cards then..
Does anyone cool just the GPU?

Cheers for the input guys. I shall keep an eye on MM more when I'm back home from work/holiday.
I guess one thing I want to make sure I get right is the size of rad/fans. I want as silent as possible; am I therefore better getting as large a rad as I can with 3 fans running much slower than a smaller one with two fans? Lets assume here I cool both the CPU and GPU (or I cool the gpu first and add cpu cooling at a later date).

A thick 360 rad will be easily sufficient and with scythe genlte typhoons will be silent
The more rad space you have, the quieter it'll be (up to a point ofcourse!)
Just make sure its optimized for low speed fans. A 120.2 will be sufficient as I just a 120.2 with 4 fans to cool my 6950 and overclocked phenom x4
Any suggestions for a case (for a 360) with plenty of room that won't blow the budget?
I was considering this because it looks great. Roomy enough? The only things going into it would be the watercooling setup, a dvdrw drive, one ssd, one sata drive, and a [large] 6970 (plus mobo, psu ofc), so I could ditch one of the hdd caddies for the pump(?).

I'll let Kii comment on that case, but my recommendations, if possible would be these:

They're both more expensive, but they're very good long term cases
The xigmatech looks awful. The bitfenix isn't bad though, I'll add that to the list for consideration cheers

indeed, the Xigmatek is an ugly mofo!
