Well, I've been using air cooling on my home-built systems since as far back as I can remember with the pinnacle now being a Thermalright Silver Arrow with 3 fans. Well, it's upgrade time, and every time I've upgraded I've told myself "next time I'm going to water cooling." Well, this time I am.

I have a $2000-$3000 system counting individual parts ( Actually $3800 as I just dropped ~$800 on a Corsair 32GB kit of 1.5v DDR3-1866 , this is also not counting the new motherboard I bought -- Asus Crosshair V Formula/Thunderbolt -- plus an AMD FX-8150 processor which adds up to $570 ) so money is no object. I plan on customizing a Mountain Mods case and setting up a custom water cooling system but I'm unsure what to buy in terms of the "best of the best."

Certainly I will be using a high end water block similar in quality to a Swiftech Apogee HD or XTL. Also, something along the lines of high end Eheim pump. For the radiator something along the lines of the highest end Black Ice, XSPC or perhaps an Aqua Computer Airplex. I have no idea of what brand and/or item to use for the reservoir. Also, I need advice on a full board ASUS Crosshair V Formula waterblock ( if one exists ) and the best waterblock for a GTX 580 ( I have 2 ).

So, if money is no object and price has no limit, what would you guys recommend for the ultimate water cooling component setup?

Thanks,
