hey guys, i asked for your advice the last time i built a computer and it has performed admirably. However the time has come for a change and i once again turn to you, the gurus of Ocuk to offer advice and suggestions, so without further ado, here goes:

-Asus P5E Deluxe Intel X48 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
-Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 LGA775 'Wolfdale' 3.00GHz (1333FSB) - Retail
-Corsair 4GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-8500C5 TwinX (2x2GB) Supplied with Airflow Fan (TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF)
-BFG GeForce 9800 GTX H²OC "WaterCooled" 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
-Tagan TG900-U88 900w BZ-Series Modular PSU
- 2x Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM
-Thermaltake VA7000BWA Shark Aluminium Full Tower - Black
-Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatal1ty Professional Series 7.1 Sound Card - Retail

and now my proposed cooling:
-Swiftech Laing D5 Vario MCP655 12 VDC Pump
-DangerDen RBX Block (LGA775 Processors)
-Thermochill PA120.2 120mm Double Radiator
-XSPC Single Bay Reservoir - Black

that is what i am currently planning, i have all the peripherals i need so thus more money gets to be spent on the base unit...YAY.

The bit i know the least about is the water cooling system and i would especially like advice about that, so feel free to give better cooling setups than what i currently propose, and indeed feel free to criticize my general proposed system

Regards Mippie
 
well, its going to be a gaming computer primarily so i would guess that the x48 would be needed unless of course you could come up with a better solution?
