Watercooling help

[Griffyn]

I am contemplating watercooling my system (spec below). However want to get the R600 when it comes out. Plus generally have a quieter pc because atm is quite loud to some extent. Since I also use my pc as a media centre (connected to a 40" LCD) would be good to get it quieter.

Been looking at water cooling and love the look of the Zalman Reserator 2 but doesn't look great at actual performance figures. Now is it possible to add the Swiftech MCR320-QP Triple 120mm Radiator or the Thermochill PA120.3 120mm Triple Radiator to give it improved performance whilst also keeping it quieter than air cooled?

Would I need a second pump? Or will stock do fine? If stock pump isnt fine anyway to change the stock pump for a more powerful one?

Buying a Reservator and a pa is a waste of money.

Suggest getting a pa120.3 with fans running at 7v for quiestness, a laing or d5 pump and a res or fillport as well as blocks. This way the system will be a good base for any changes or upgrades in future and offer you better temps.

You don't say what case you have but from mentioning the pa I presume you have enough room for it.

LOL no dont have enough space inside pc, guess I thought of mounting on top or on the side But might upgrade case when I get a R600, as will be a tight fit and may require mods.

I have a Thermaltake Tsunami (although done quite a few mods such as turning the harddisk cage round to improve looks, air flow).
