Rackmount Case for Water Cooling?

I am planning out a system and thought id ask if it was possible to water-cool THIS case.

The build i will be doing has two CPU's, both will be overclocked.

 

The two ideas i had were:

1- using two of 110mm rads

2- or trying to fit one 360mm rad in there

 

Which would be better for performance/$? Or should i just stick with with air cooling?

 

EDIT:

and does anyone happen to know if its possible to watercool the c32 socket in the first place?

If you can fit 360 rad then do it.

360 rad have more surface so it performs better.

I don't know if you'll be able to manage a big rad in there. it doesn't look very... spacious.

if you can fit the 360 in there it would be good but think about the space for the pump and res as well. you might want to consider an external "water box".
