Need help on pump-bay res

You'll need to take a picture of your shopping cart or tell us the name of the res in question. That link you've given us will only show us our shopping carts, it will not show us yours.
 
Here are the watercooling parts..

Waterblock : EK supremacy CSQ copper plexi
Pump : Alphacool vpp655-t12 variable speed
reservoir : EK dual 5.25" drive bay spin CSQ plexi
radiator : EK coolstream XT 360mmx120 (47mm thick)
Fittings : 3/8" ID, 1/2"OD silver compression
Tubing : 3/8",1/2" alphacool alphatube 2m
Coolant : Mayhems ultra pure H2O 1ltr, mayhems 5ml biocide

+ 3 CM sickleflows (will probably add 3 fans later on), I read somewhere that my HAF 932 adv wouldn't support a 60mm thick rad in push-pull?
 
No you can't fit the pump directly to the res, I'd get on of the two that XSPC makes, aquatuning should have those.
You can find out very easily if a 60mm rad would fit: 60mm+2*25mm=110 mm and then measure in your case how much room there is
 
Ok i'll start by measuring my case, by the two that xspc makes do you mean res or pumps?
 
Unfortunately you can't put a pump inside that bay res. If you want to fit a D5 in a bay res Specialtech do some XSPC and Alphacool reservoirs that can accommodate a D5 or include one. Otherwise you could mount a D5 elsewhere in your case or get a different pump/res combo.
I'm fairly sure most rads will fit in the top of a HAF, but I'm not certain if that's the case.
Also a word of advice, get different fans: Corsair SPs, Noctua NFFs or Scythe GTs.
 
60mm push pull doesn't seem possible because of memory, is 50mm push pull better than 60mm with one set of fans? I'm now looking at tube res with d5 pump, could you also suggest some white fans? (either LED or white-painted fan)

Adding fans doesnt really make a lot of difference, its just for looks more often than not.

Enermax Cluster UCCL12 PWM, Silverstone Air Penetrator SST-AP121-WL (chrome with whit leds), Bitfenix Spectre Pro PWM 120mm White, I don't know any more white fans than that

Not strictly true,push/pull works wonders for high FPI rads...GTX's and the like.
Although i recommend a 38mm fan for those rads rather than push/pull.
Does bugger all for SR-1's,RX's etc tho.

Only really with high rpm fans though. And I tend to shy away from them because I instantly hate the noise.
