I'm looking to build two rigs using the Gigabyte GA-X38-DS4 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128089)

I'm looking for max OC on the Q6600 (or possibly the Q6700 after the price drop). I'm choosing the Gigabyte MoBo as I have familiarity with the Gigabyte family.

I'm looking to cool only the CPU & NB. This is going to be used for an AppServer & DBServer (plus they'll fold when not in use).

I'm thinking EK Supreme for the CPU block, but needs recommendations on the NB block assuming this MoBo.

The rest of the WC rig will be
Thermochill PA120.3 (http://www.petrastechshop.com/thpara2.html)
Laiing DDC w/Petra's DDCT-01 top (http://www.petrastechshop.com/laddcwpeddto.html)

I'm looking at 3/8" ID and 1/2" OD tubing. I'm not a big fan of the fatter tubes and prefer the sleekness of the smaller tubes. In addition, I'll probably be going with Compression Fittings (http://www.koolance.com/water-cooling/product_info.php?product_id=397).
