More Information

Well, Im ready to install my water cooling kit. My computer has been running excellent for over a month now with no overclock (my CPU would idle around 56c and 70c+ on dual instances of Orthos). I replaced the TIM on the CPU, NB, and SB. After doing some research it has been brought to our attention at the EVGA message boards that the Mosfets next to the CPU also need the TIM applied (some didnt have any). My ambient room temps are very high (my computer is in the loft of my livingroom) so I played around with voltages and got my CPU to idle at 48c with 1.112v. Okay, the kit is an Swiftec Apex Ultra + with an extra MCW30 for the SB. I also bought a On/Off Fitting for a T-Line so I can drain at the back of the case as my kit already has a res. Now, what would be a good route for the flow? PUMP-RAD-CPU-GPU-NB-SB-PUMP? Where should I put the T-Line? My case is an Apevia X Pider w/window:

 Any and all suggestions are welcome! Placement of RAD/ PUMP/ RES are also encouraged! Peace
