I wouldn't mind a few suggestions on potential colour schemes for the water cooling. I did initially want white but I may go for an all black. Not sure at all...

red with the matt black? or blue looks good to with black
Associate
will it be one loop or two?
i quite like my bright blue look, but id go black (and not look back) if i went again.
the black in nightmares rig looks fantastic,
and then instead of the UV cathodes, I'd put 4 red cathodes in, and red LEDs in pump and res

Thanks for the info people. I might go for an all black theme. It will be one loop, which will cool cpu/gpu. I'll list the potential parts I'll be getting soon to see what you all think.

Hi Mikeey,
Funny you should say that because I was doing some cable sleeving last night when I was watching Reading batter Norwich, which now means my beloved Nottingham Forest are safe!
You have to buy cable sleeving seperately. There are loads out there but I chose to get the MurderMod pack as it's just about the best sleeving money can buy. I'll post some pics tomorrow of the sleeving I've done so far.

Hi all,
Just to update:
Ordered the following so far: (Spent the last month researching
)
CPU – HeatKiller 3 Copper (plus backplate)
GPU - Koolance VID487X2
Radiator - TFC Quad 480
Pump / Res - XSPC DDC 18w Ultra Pump/Reservoir
Fittings - Danger Den Fat boys
Fans - Scythe S-FLEX 1600RPM Ultra Quiet 120mm Fan X4
Fan controller - Zalman ZM-MFC1 Plus Black Multi Fan Controller
General Purpose ABS Boxes
Few more bits to order but it's getting there.
Most of it has come but I'll have to wait till mid next week for both blocks to come. It gives me plenty of time this weekend to fit the abs boxes to my case in order to mount the rad. I've sleeved the 4 fans and extensions for the rad but I’ve still got the 24pin bad boy to do though. Hopefully I'll have plenty of pics to show you over the weekend.
Cheers all,
RoEy

Looking good dude, looking forward to you (finally 
) getting this badboy built!
The heatkiller 3.0 is a very nice block, work of art imho!
Need to get some of those boxes as well, just another item on the to do list!

LOL! I'll let you know whether or not it's a 'piece of art' once I've fitted it!
Got loads of pics on my lovely Nikon D80, but haven't had much time to sort them yet. I'll get plenty on over the weekend. Promise!
Thanks for all your help so far too.

Same as all TJ07's, in the bottom compartment next to the PSU.
LOL! Sorry everyone!
I'll get some pics on tonight but might be late, I work 5 days a week, plus I'm a husband and a father to a one year old! It's hard work finding the time to build a water cooled PC too!
In addition, it all went well. Just got to wait for my blocks, tubing and bits & bobs to turn up now!

P.S. I took LOADS of pics...
