Just getting into water cooling. I have been building computers for he past 5 years and have been wanting get into some serious overclocking (and water cooling ;)). so here's my current build

Asus P8Z77- V Pro
Intel i5 3570K
AMD Radeon HD 7950
8GB RAM
500gb SSD
This all in an Antec twelve hundred v3

So, basically, I am looking at water cooling the CPU and GPU for now. (is cooling the NB/RAM worth it? or something i can throw in the loop down the road?)

Parts I am looking at:

Swiftech APOGEE HD CPU waterblock
Swiftech Komodo HD 7950 GPU waterblock
Swiftech MCX20-XP (extreme) 120x3 Rad (will this keep it cool enough?)
Swiftech MCP655 Pump
Bitspower water tank z multi 150-POM (acrylic part.. I heard bad things about acrylic on waterblocks does the same hold for res?)

then i need all fittings and accessories if someone can point me in the right direction for these that would be extremely helpful.

Really looking forward to this, I am the kind of person that jumps into everything not knowing what they are doing this is the first time I am taking the time to research everything and get a full understanding before purchase so please help me get into the world of water cooling!!

Thanks!

Thanks ihog but I do know how forums and stickies work. I've read that about 3 times through to make sure I grasped everything I could. I guess I worded my question wrong, it was meant to be more along the lines of if those parts are good? Is swiftech reliable or should I go for another option?
