I am planning on a custom water cooling loop in a Fractal Design Mini R2.
I7-4790K + GTX 780 Poseidon
Would 360mm be enough or should I go overboard and keep CPU temps @ 30-40 ish with the 600MM worth of rads

How about a single UT60 60mm thick 240mm rad ?

Well on NCIX there is a sale for both the Monsta 80mm 240mm rad and the UT60 240mm rad so i was thinking if I could put 480MM worth od rads in my system and still only pay $130 CAD for this overkill system

My odd little thought...

If you want to cool like its insane buy 2 of these http://www.frozencpu.com/products/9700/ex-rad-167/Swiftech_MCR420_Quiet_Power_Quad_120mm_Radiator_-_Black_MCR420-QP.html?tl=g30c95s570, and get 8 fans for each to have in a push pull configuration to complete your loop.

But, if they both can't fit in you current case invest in the http://www.caselabs-store.com/magnum-smh10/ if you want to fit exactly these RADs or if you want to go crazy get the http://www.caselabs-store.com/magnum-th10a/ if you want to do a total of 4 RADs.

Although if you want to go completely bonkers get the http://www.caselabs-store.com/magnum-tx10-d/ and pretty much fit a few car radiators and pumps to cool some stuff...
