will this pump be fine for a cpu and dual gpus? http://www.koolance.com/water-cooling/product_info.php?product_id=800

OR should I go to the next one up to http://www.koolance.com/water-cooling/product_info.php?product_id=280

will i be fine with a 4x120 fan Radiator? (the 4 fan is cheaper then the 3 fan)

the GPUs will not be oced, cpu probable not be oced to the max, i think my case has ID: 10mm grommets but i can always make it bigger if needed.. i am not an ocer but i am just sick if the heat

this post is probable point less because i'm not sure on how much $ i will have so can't really say on what exactly my cpu and gpus will be thinking it will not be any lower then GTX 460/Radeon HD 6870, cpu will be an AMD Phenom II until i get a "AMD Bulldozer" thinking about cooling the GPUs until i get new cpu because i think its a waste of $ if i got a AM3 cpu cooler and new cpus are AM3+
 
if your no overclockin mate dont even bother with weatercooling just slap a good cooler on there and buy gpu's with decent heatsinks and ur sorted
 
You'd be throwing money away with a Koolance setup. if you aren't overclocking the GPU then aftermarket cooling is pointless and as for the CPU I'd definitely say a Noctua NH-D14 would be much better value for money. If you've got your heart set on water then do it properly, but you'd be better off spending the money on an SSD, better GPU or more RAM.
 
Steppy is right, the only way to do water to get better results is buy spending a lot of money. But the offshot of this is you will have more fans running and tbh more noise with water compaired to air. Except if you have a hardcore overclock on your GPU's.

I dont agree with steppy telling you not to though, if you want water just do it properly and be prepaired to be poor or at mastercards mercy.

Youll need a DDC pro 10w or Ultra 18w if you want the best flow, XSPC do bay res's you can bolt the pump staight into if you want aswell.
 
I agree with most of what Tom says, but not the noise.

My watercooling setup had 2 120mm fans on a triple rad cooling cpu and gpu. add 2 case fans and a PSU fan and thats no more than an aircooling system.

Feature in a fan contoller and I have a nice quite system.
 
If your going with a multi block setup and triple rad, I would recommend the Koolance 450s pump. A res base or pump base. Also a lot of people will say that watercooling is expensive and not to do it if your not overclocking. This is true, however if you want watercooling because you think its cool. And you want your rig to stand out. Than go for it man make your rig yours.
