Modding a Thermaltake Symphony- Worth it?

[snootch]

I saw the Thermaltake symphony, and fell in love with it- 5 120mm fans, and a huge radiator- awesome!
But, as I read reviews and experiences on the 'net I found the Symphony really isn't that awesome due to weak pumps and the use of small tubing. I know the system costs just north of $300, but would it be worth it to buy one, tear the pumps out, replace all tubing with 3/8", and replace the pumps with D5's? I would also replace the CPU block with a Fuzion for a Q6600, and add two EK 8800GTX waterblocks. Its a shame that I would have to replace 1/2 the system after paying so much for it, but I wanted to see what everyone thought about the thermal capabilities of such a setup.

If you want to go that route just replace all the water cooling equipment with 1/2" stuff since it will cool even better than a 3/8" loop. That means the pump, res, rad, and blocks.
