Cool Master Stacker 830 - amazing unit, ill be able to install everything ill need for good looks (nice and clean setup), air flow, and liquid cooling.
Big Water 745 - not too sure if this pump will be able to handle my loop. also scapping the single internal/external radiator.
VGA Water Block - i figured if i ever flash my x850 card to open up 4 additional pipelines that this would come in handy.
ill show ya what im going to be working with. should be here by either monday or tuesday, hopefully.
Aqua Bay M1 - lets me know level of liquid system and indicates there is water flow.
Aqua Bay M2 - this will replace my internal/external radiator from the Big Water 745, also frees up an ugly looking fan mount.
Aqua Bay M3 - ive read its best to have your tank above the pump for bleeding purposes. should help in looping everything together.
HardCano 12 - lets me know if my pump is failing or something is about to explode!
So far i havent had any problems installing the motherboard, power unit, or cards. ive noticed that the stacker has amazing amount of room to do just about anything. now if i can just figure out where all these plugs go :bang head
does anyone kmow if ill be able to carry out my loop with all these components. im scrapping the single internal/external radiator for the M2 to give it that clean look. i figured i can always just hook up that external 2 radiator anyways. i was planning on using 3/8" tubing but im not even sure if the pump will handle all this. can anyone help me out before i make a swimming pool out of my computer, lol.

I'd get a DFI LanParty board
Okay, you don't really need all those bay components for your water cooling, and they're not even that "cool". The DDR cooler looks awesome, though -- I think I'll order one next week A HD component is practically useless, one 120mm fan will provide enough air circulation around your HDs to keep them cool (assuming you have anywhere from 1 to say 4 HDs). If you want a powerful pump, Iwaki MD20RLZ is probably the most powerful around for computer water cooling systems. And if you're looking for a ready-for-install package, the Asetek WaterChill sets are the best IMO.
Something I'd recommend is VRAM heatsinks to go with the VGA block These look nice.
The Stacker is a quality case and Antec makes good PSUs, so I'd say it's nice. I'd buy a better VGA card though
