Can somone spec me a watercooling setup?, the parts do not have to be here if ocuk do not stock them, i can just google them. Im really looking for the best and i dont know if i will be cooling 1 or 2 graphics card and have not decided if im going to cool the motherboard or not.I will be using a core i7 Do and for a case ill either be using the 800d or the tj07 not decided yet if ill will need 2 rads or not.

Budget is £400-£450 inc fans and fittings, could strech more if its worth it.
 
You won't need two rads unless you're going dual GTX 480.

for the case use the TJ07, better WC potential, so get a Black ICE GTX 480 with a 480mm stand for the TJ07 and 4 (8 if you have enough money left) Delta 120mm fans plus the best fan controller you can buy

get a Hydor L30 or a Laing MCP655/D5 for the pump

EK supreme HF for CPU

I'm going to suggest that you get GTX 470's instead of the 5870's, WC really helps them, one or two 470's at 850MHz+ will destroy any non-LN2 cooled 5870(s)

think that's it for now
 
The case is not included in the budget and arent the delta fans really noisy?

EDIT: Is there any benchmarks that shows the 470 v 5870 overclocked and not?

1: hence why I recommended the fan controller

2: not that I know of when you take WC into the equation
 
I wouldn't compare a Hydor L30 to an Laing D5. Go with a Laing/Swiftech D5/MCP655.

Thermochill PA120.4 would be better than the Black Ice radiator.
