My objective with this loop is to silence my system as much as possible without any compromise to my current CPU overclock. The case and everything else I already own so don't worry about that not being listed.

List looks good. FYI - buy 2 bottles of the EK coolant - a loop with those rads, a CPU block, res and GPU blocks will use a bit more then 1L on your initial fill

Ok I'll keep that in mind Whaler, any suggestions on a full cover 680 block? I was considering the XSPC Razor GTX680 or the Koolance VID-NX680 but would any good quality block give me similar performance?

Most of the GPU blocks will give almost the same performance - within a degree or two. Mostly has to do more with looks. :) Just check the compatibilty lists, as if your 680 is not a reference PCB, pretty much impossible to get a full block.

Ya they are reference 680 cards IIRC. EVGA Superclocked 2GB cards. Forgot to mention that in my reply.

Got another question. I'm curretnly considering 3/8" ID x 5/8" OD tubing and fittings. Would increasing the ID to 1/2" give me better performance? I would assume so since I'm increasing the hole though which water can flow though.

Actually no. :) You would get some improved flow, but remember, with that pump, you are getting 100's of litters per hour of flow. Only if you went to super small or large diameter tubing might you see some difference. Main thing, buy some good after market fans for the rads to optimize your cooling...
