Temps with rad fan as exaust:

Idle temps:
34
34
28
33

Load temps after 10 hours of prime95:
54/5
54/5
48
50

Being pre-cure for as5 I'm quite happy considering the poor cooling of this case. I'm now going to try the rear fan as an intake!

This is with a scythe. I may try it with my noctua.
 
Everything needed is included in the kit although not all shown on the kit's picture.

I'm hoping to get an as5 drop into the high 40s. Only thing not included is a fan but since you're attaching the rad to a fan on the case....

Also worth noting the red anti-coils don't come as standard but are cheap. Not necessary though but look good.

so you got that massive reservoir then, thats pretty cool it doesnt say that in the description. You can get reservoir that small and get the pumps inside, might save room.
Did you manage to mount the pump ok up there near your PSU?

If he bought the kit mentioned in the OP, then he has this:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-007-XS

which has the pump built in.

Does list it where it gives a breakdown of the components in the bundle. They ought to put it in the main picture, might sell a few more!
 
Interesting - about to do some research on this kit but would it be able to hold a q6600 at 3.8 maybe more with max temps not going over 65-70? If anyone knows off hand that would be great! :)

I doubt it. Clocked it up to 3ghz (no vcore change) today. Temps at load for 10 hours prime95: 58, 58, 51, 52

Compared to 67 degrees yes. It's not the coolest case in the world. I may try mounting the fan before the rad. But for near silent cooling 54 is amazing. A pretty good load temp anyway. In general use the temp never really goes above 38
 
I got a little bored so I thought, I'll buy some longer screws and put the fan before the rad and see what it does. £1.49 well spent it looks like. Prime been on 5 mins and temps are 48,48,42,44

Looks like my rad should be able to cope better with more air! Will give it 8 hours tonight and see how it goes. If it comes in under 50 I will be delighted for a kit costing just over £100!

Came in at 54 again but cools a lot quicker after load. 61 stable on intel burn test :)

Edit, further idea. Adding another fan on other side of rad to further suck air through. Will test tonight!

Room ambient temp I need to find. Idle at moment is 30,30,24,28 at 3ghz. Just played cod4 and the temp didn't seem to go above 34 that I could see. Will run 8 hours of prime and see!
