You may want to look at BigWater 745 if you plan to upgrade. With the 745 you just add the block for your vid card and you're done.

I would recommend ARCTIC COOLING AVC-NV5R3 NV Silencer Rev.3 - Retail you can get this for $29 shipped from newegg. Cools nicely and people swear by it.

The thermaltake water block for video cards has some issues with the plastic top possibly cracking and leaking (and it is $40) shipped.

The way I look at it you can get BW SE and hteARCTIC COOLING AVC-NV5R3 for the same price (or a bit less) than the 745. I think it is the cheapest way to go (I'll be getting this soon).
