3 - Look at the Aqua Computer Kryos line

There is one for each price point and each one will fit on any intel socket without any changes to the mounts. Heatkiller and EK mounting brakets are socket dependant so you have to buy multiple mounts and change them if you move the block to a new board. I use the HF on my gaming rig.
Good stuff!

Variable speed it is.

Tygon clear tubing. Which fluid would you recommend? The only reason I was going to go with UV tubing, is to use distilled water.

I use Feser UV reactive dye that comes in small, maybe 3 or 4 oz bottles then mix it with distilled water

edit: I stand corrected, the EK blocks will fit multiple sockets. Problem is they're fugly : Also, the Kryos have a great pin matrix for cooling

I would roll with the 2x 120 for Sandy, My h70 does a decent job and provide stability at 4.5 24/7 for my gamer in a warm inviroment.

use the 3x120 for the vid card or cards depending on what your doing.
My experience with the 655 and all the rinky dink water cooling site pumps is that they all blow .....

Ehiem FTW .... more work involved though

It will pwn ............ just make sure you have your clamps tight ............
