I have hopefully found your m/board here: http://www.coolingconfigurator.com/step1_complist?mb_mbs=170

 

There's CPU blocks but apparantly no full-board compatible.

Yeah I already have cpu block, Im looking for the mobo chipsets and Mosfets. Thanks for fast reply.

I'd recommend something other than a 1500 watt, you truly don't need that much. I know overclocking can get way up their in terms of power consumption, but an i7 920 + 2 580's will struggle to break 1kw, even with severe overvolting.

Ok i have found ordered and received the most rare item for my watercooling upgrade, the EK-FB EVGA Classified 4-SLI - Acetal+Nickel full motherboard waterblock, Now my question is, how should i do this, i will have two loop system should have cpu and gpu on one loop and MB block on the other, cpu and MB block on one and gpu on other, or gpu and MB block on one and cpu on the other? Mind you that x58 4way chipset runs at 70C with the stock heatsick no 80mm fan and 50ish C with stock heatsink with 80mm fan. Setup 2 quad rads, one tri rad and one dual rad all with push/pull.

 

Thanks.
