I'd like some expert advice about which kit would provide the best value before placing the order. I want to cool an i5 clocked to 4.6 in a Corsair 650D case. I know OcUK do a pre-built water cooled 650D case, but I'd like to have the satisfaction of building the loop myself :)

EK H3O Watercooling Kit - Supreme LT 240
EK H3O Watercooling Kit - Supreme HF 240
 
I'm coming from a Corsair H60 all in one at the moment I only want to cool the cpu. At a later date I might want to add a block to my 560GTX card would that also need an additional rad?
 
That OcUK kit is way over budget plus I'm not sure if a 360 rad would fit in the case, I know you can't fit a bay res into those cases due to the drive locking mechanism. Just thinking I could fit a 240 rad in the top and in the future if I wanted to cool the gpu I could put a 120 rad on the rear fan mounting.

nice, but would it be too late to persuade you to get an elysium with bigger rads? :D

Also, you may wat to get a tubing cutter :)

I'd need a bigger room to house that case :D I have added a tube cutter to the order, I thought afterwards that I'd be less likely to get leaks if the tube is cut cleanly :)
