I'm new to water cooling,and Im likely to have quite the bit of space in my wooden case...so im wondering if it be smart too loop my tubing,like you would see in the back of an fridge or freezer inorder to leach some heat of like an giant heat-sink of sorts?

NOOO! DO NOT loop your tubing EVER. It reduces flow rate and adds extra length. It's done on fridges because it's metal.

The tubing will not dissipate ANY ANY heat at all. PLEASE follow that link I posted, spend a few days learning. Untill then you'll be tossing odd questions out that we'd rather not spend the time answering. It gets tiresome and we'll pretty much give up holding your hand.

Get educated for a while, please.
