This summer, I want to upgrade to Venice and an nForce3 board (Epox 9NDA3+ unless something "better" shows up)

CPU WB: Swiftech 6002-64. 45USD and doesn't perform much worse than others (TDX, RBX are the only competitors for it)

GPU WB: Maze4GPU with Delrin top. Best and most available GPU block IMO and no mixed metals :) (X800PRO VIVO 16p, btw)

Pump: Little Giant 2-MD, same as Iwaki (perf wise) but 85USD.

Rad: Wepon's 2x120mm w/shroud (120x25 fans), 65USD (I believe, too lazy to check)

Res: Custom ... (this one will be big ;))

so what is your question? or are you just letting us know your summer plans?

more like "Any comments/questions/complaints?"

just want to know some thoughts :)

if you want to use 25mm thick fans go with a black ice pro3 instead of hte weaponcore.. if you dont mind swtiching to the 38mm fans then stick with the weapon core..

well, the problem is that I won't be able to fit the pro3 and the height is sort of restrictive (5" for all of max)

I will mount the whole assembly to the top of my case (Lian PC75, will make blowholes) so that the fans are between the core and the case and pull the air out from inside.

would putting the fans inside in a set-up like this hinder performance greatly?
