Cheers guys.
Nah i aint w/cooling the card. Not much point tbh. It doesnt get hot and the air is expelled from the case out of the back, plus the fans on the rad are blowing a lovely amount of air onto the card (and i aint got another 200 quid to spare, another pump, gpu block and rad etc).
I dont see it as a necessary thing. Maybe in my next build after iv sold this computer in a few days i'll consider it.
Oh, when the RAM comes and the Q9450 arrives this is going to be for sale. £1400

Veerrrry nice mate, looks lushness 
Nice build mate, one question though. Why isn't the pump immediately below the res? Most small pumps benefit from being gravity fed as opposed to having to suck/draw the coolant into the impeller. Pumps are designed to do just that...pump, not suck. I'd imagine that it would be a bit of a mission to fill or purge air from. Regardless, it looks very neat and tidy and the green looks really good. 
lmfao. pumps up there purely out of my laziness of me not wanting to find the drill bits to drill some holes to mount the pump in the bottom of the case.
I thought it would be too much going on too. I did think of swapping where the res and pump were but nah, too lazy and didnt want to ruin the powder coating too.
Ham did mention about the placing of the pump and res, or maybe it was llwd in class. god knows.
Its working fine anyways, ill probably resdesign it some day. Probably not someday soon i might add.
I did get some oc3d fan grills too but they wont look right on any of the fans (unless i spray the fans, which i might do) so meh. Next build maybe.
Cheers guys for the comments. Tis nice to have the top guns of oc3d approve the case.
