New loop for inverted ATX TJ07.

Hi,

I finally got my hands on a TJ07 and can now get some use out of all the WC stuff I've hoarded while waiting for a TJ07. But since I ended up getting an inverted ATX TJ07 with a lightbox I pretty much have to plan my loop all over again and would appreciate some second opinions. I will be cooling the CPU and one GPU (motheboard is an Asus p8z77 pro)

The WC components I've allready got:
Rad: 480mm going in the basement of the case
Res: Phobya balancer 150 (might swap for longer tube)
Pump: D5 with top

I have a couple things im not really sure how im going to do. How should I run the tubing from the GPU to the reservoir? Should I add a 240 rad in the front or 360 in the roof? How should I do the airflow in the top compartment since the tripple 120mm spacein the roof is my only place for fans? I am also not really sure how I should run the tubing through the lightbox, I could place the reservoir against the lightbox so the only tube I would have to worry about is the one from the center hole to he CPU?

I have two pictures that might make it easier to visualize how the tubing runs can be done.

I've been planning and checking what the european resellers have to offer since posting this thread.

I'm probably chaning the res to one that has the inlet on the top and also to a bigger one. I'm looking at the magicool 250 or possibly one of the new primochill advanced ones.

The colourscheme Will probably be black/silver/blue since my blue motherboard really forces me to go with blue and my nickel-plexi gpu-block brings in the silver.

I'm still a bit undecided about the tubes through the lightbox but i might add fittings and a G1/4 extensions between the upper and lower compartment.

The fans will be 4 AP121 for the radiator and probably 3 AP123 for the top intake. I think I'll go with EK chrome 16/10 fittings, Primochill advanced LRT and blue EK coolant.
