Is This a Good Setup?
I found this site through some ones post from some forum the other day and they recommended this site and I am wondering if this is a good all in one setup for my system in my sig. Any help is greatly appreciated.
http://www.petrastechshop.com/pecoel.html
I know I could probably get a better block and will probably ask them if I can. What block should I get and is the rest of the setup ok for my system? I am hoping to not have any leaks and have everything last for awhile.. Thanks again.

That kit is a great kit. The only thing missing is a res. Petra has a t-line setup which is harder to bleed with.
Throw this res in and your good to go. Also get the med-speed yate-loons. If they are too loud, you can always get a fan controller.
The block is a great block, especially for beginners. There are better blocks out there, but there are also worst.

Is noise a concern to you? The "best" involves high-speed San-Aces like in Sadasius's hovercraft
The "best" also has to take into account your budget.

That was definitely to loud  . I would like the best block there is right now though. I seen some suggestions on fans as well but I can't remember what they were right now. I will look that part back up.

Gentle Typhoon 1850s are my pick. I think they should be back in stock shortly. Best fan review here.
The MCR320-QP is a great rad for the money, but the XSPC, TFC, and Thermochill are all better, but cost more and are not that much better if you can't afford the extra costs. Those rads are great for the none hovercraft fans out there.  Reviews here and here.
The best all around block for the core I7 atm is the HK 3.0 LT/CU. The reason why I say I7 is as no one has tested it on socket 775 chips yet. Enzotech Sapphire is an excellent block for the money. EK Supreme is also a nice block along with that GTZ. Vapor has a ton of different reviews on blocks in the stickies and HES has a good one too.
