[CENTER]My plan is to have a single loop, internal system.

Rad>pump>Res>GPU>SB>CPU>NB>

You should switch this around slightly so that it's res>pump and also you'll certainly want to do your CPU before GPU and NB/SB. Keep in mind that the temp on the CPU is the most sensitive thing in your WC loop so it's important to have fresh(er) water going into this. Especially with the Fermi in your loop, which is known to generate huge amounts of heat.

EDIT: Just looked and saw pump was internal to rad, scratch the res>pump part. Whatever you do though don't pump into the res! You'll lose all of your pressure. Do res>rad/pump>cpu>nb/sb/gpu>res if anything.

As far as cases go, if you're looking for a cheaper alternative check out the HAF 932: Black Edition. That's what I'm waiting for with my build (comes out at the end of June).

Your motherboard is very shiny...

Ahh, very smart. I hadn't even considered making the loop hit the CPU first. I was just looking at what would look best within the case.

Thanks for all the advice, it was a help.

I am sure of getting the TJo7. I finished my "Project HAF 932" a couple weeks ago, so i am burnt out on the HAF series right now.

Not true as far as "fresher" water. The water temp throughout the loop equalizes to the point where there isn't even a .1C difference between blocks and radiators. Water isn't magically 15C cooler after leaving the rad and 10C hotter after leaving the GPU block. Build the loop so you have the shortest tubing possible while still keeping the reservoir immediately before the pump. Don't worry about order as long as you do keep the pump after the reservoir.

Thanks for the correction, you're right. I've read that so many times but the pump>res must have thrown me off
