Depending on the rad, I was thinking of going with a PA120.3 Triple rad. Will be cooling CPU, NB/Mosfets/GPU(maybe crossfire in the future)?

Need more info. Maybe this link will help. Actually two links.

Single LOOP? Yes.
Single Radiator? It Depends.
It depends on which CPU, GPU (and how many if X-Fire/SLI), your overclocking levels (ie your total heat load). Also how much of the performance vs silence trade-off you are willing to accept, and what you consider an acceptable level of cooling is.
Without full specs, it's near impossible to answer. However a PA120.3 with a good set of high-speed fans can keep quite a bit of equipment in the "safe" range of operations.
Myself, I'm running 1 Loop with 2 PA 120.3 and 1 PA 120.2. (It's overkill, but I had the room in the case and I run a heavy overclock and undervolt my fans).
sorry I forgot to add my system:
core i7 950
Asus P6X58D-E
5870 or 6870 xfire
OC will probably be at 4.2-4.3ghz, gpus will not be overclocked
Probably will be enough, question is what the temperature will be and how quickly fans spin
Hi Phase,
I am running the following on an XSPC RS120, and an RS240 with 2x 1200rpm and a 1400rpm fan:
I7 920 at 4ghz 1.35vcore.
Mosfet and NB/SB Blocks
GTX470 FC Block stock clocks.
Ambient must be around 22c and I was getting 65c loaded on the CPU playing BC2, its now getting close to 75 but I reckon I need to de-dust the rads. I also consider the fans to be the loudest thing in my system (it is situated right next to me) and so if I want to run slower 1000rpm fans to reduce noise I am certain I need to install larger rads.
