If you really want to buy a kit. Go with the swiftech. But I believe most of us here that use watercooling build our own setups and just buy the blocks from swiftech or danger den.

The Swiftech kit is the best "pre-made" kit out there. You can squeeze a bit more performance though by handpicking your cooling system components to match your hardware and case.
For example, if your case can accomodate it try a big BIX radiator.
Danger Den and Swiftech make great WB's. Use a "better" quality pump instead of the kit pumps and big, gnarly fans with a speed control

Eheim is the most used brand probably. Look the 1046 (300 L/h), 1048 (600 L/h) and the 1250 (1200 L/h). You can go also with the Hyder too.
I wonder if anyone use blocks from aqua-computer. They are made in germany. http://www.aqua-computer-systeme.de/ For the look they are the winner. Anyone?

I would also agree with the White Water block, however I disagree with the d-tek radiator. Save yourself some money and go buy an equivalent performing heatercore from a car parts dealer.

2 * 120mm Delta 190cfm (http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/delffb1212eh.html) :slobber: will be nice! cant fix a rheostat with it though. btw charlie, if there any 120mm tornado available? cant seem to find any on vantec's official site though ;)

I agree with Hedge about the Radiator. Go to a car parts dealer an buy your self a heater core from the Ford Transit '87. You'll be amazed form it's performance......
