Im looking into getting a DDR3-1600 2X2GB kit.

I am watercooling so am i better off buying a EVGA 780i and a waterblock (100 bucks extra and 339 for the evga)
Or the S2E for round 450?
Does the S2E WC block go to the SB and NB?
I hope you saw the news/rumour about NV quiting the chipset business. Eventhough it's a rumour and NV has categorically deined it, I would wait a little bit more b4 pulling the trigger. I was actually thinking of picking up a P5N64 pro for a GTX 280 tri-sli and a raid card for the OCZ SSDs that I was plannin to buy(all under liquid cooling), but after seeing this news I am having second thoughts about it. I might go rampage extreme and dual RV700 instead. Just my $0.02.
