ram: getto or http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Mips/RAMFreezer (there aren't many ram waterblocks)
chilling the nb isn't going to be easy, because everything has to fit underneath the vid card. Look at these blocks, they just fit underneath the vid cards: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Mips/DFIFreezer

What is different swiftech MCW6002 from MCW6000?
Which is the best?

The major difference between this block and the MCW6000-A previously tested is (i) the use of 1/2" barbs and (ii) the use of a tapered inlet to reduce the ID of the central barb to 0.27" and increase water velocity.

6002 should be better because it's less restrictive (larger barbs).

Look here, lots of water blocks compared. Even though there not chilled, perfromance is equivalent.

Swiftech MCW6000 type for my chiller 1/2" and low flow I think is good combo for coolant flow

So the 6002 would be better than the G4 for chilled watercooling? Or almost as effective with less hassle?
just get the 6002. lol its easy to insulate and most people use them so if u get any troubles they'll be able to help. and tbh i canrt see there being much differnce when u start chilling the water.

NO difference really at those temps dude. I used a brasstoped maze3 at -30 and got to 4.6 on my p4 with my chiller(currently insulating a 6002 with lines for benching next week).
Here's what my rig looks like for daily driving purposes.

When I was researching my water cooling system I bought all Danger Den and have been happy with it for 3 years. Now I have a water fountain I got at a school auction for 5 bucks and so I ordered a brass top for my maze 4 and off we go I guess. DD is not the cheapest but it is very good quality stuff.

Hmmm... I got a DangerDen TDX, plexitop...
I wanna use -28 deg cooling, will that be a problem? - My friend told me he'd ran -40 deg liquid with another head, also containing plexi top..
