ok, so I decided im ordering that kit. I called, they are out of stock for that pump but they will upgrade the pump to one thats better for $8 more, so im going to do that. Is there anything I need besides this? Yes it says out of stock, but thats because the guy I talked to changed it since they dont have that pump.

Ok, just ordered the kit with MX-2 thermal paste (the guy said its beating AS5 with temps) Also got the vario pump for an extra $8 since they were sold out of the one that came with the kit. I hope I can join the 4ghz club when I get this!!!

That will be a great kit.

You'll get some awesome performance out of it.

Glad to see that my legacy lives on even when I'm busy and don't have time to post.

I plan on maybe getting a similar kit, but just to cool a GTX 260.

And id like to keep it down to a 120mm rad if at all possible.

That might be pushing it for good temps but you will get decent ones.

1 120mm rad for a non modified gtx260 should be real good. With a 2x 120mm rad he would get some nice volt mod space :P (do it do it!)

so, will I be mounting the rad like outside of where the exhaust fan is? Also, how will I get the tubes through the back of the case? They might fit through the PCI slot things. Ill take a pic of my case so u guys can tell me where stuff will go in a bit.
