To add to this question, generally speaking anyway, does anyone have an opinion on which type of water cooler is overall a better choice: The type with radiators and pumps mounted in the chassis, or the type with the whole unit in a separate tower?

Coleman- I would personally spend the extra cash and go with the BigWater SE, that is compatible with your system, but whatever watercooling set up you choose, you will need to purchase a seperate waterblock for the videocard.
jd- It depends, really. If you have room for an external system and like the way they look, what they add to your case, etc., then they usually cool a little more efficiently that the internal ones since they normally have larger radiators and more water capacity. However, if you want a stealthed, not to mention cheaper solution, you will probably want to go with an internal unit.

Black Ice Pro Radiator 28.99
Danger Den CSP-MAG 12 Volt Pump 49.99
MAZE4 for Intel 478 Processors 34.99
Acetal Version MAZE4GPU 44.99
this will cost like 150, and after getting a few better parts and tubing, around 200. But you will be so much better off buying real watercooling instead of kits.(with ebay you could get chearper, or just find a place that makes cheap water blocks)
