i want to water cool the video, CPU,and chipset

any suggestions  There's no advantage to watercooling your specific system.
The card doesn't need it, and for the price of watercooling it why not just buy a decent card?
Chipset doesn't need it, doesn't run hot enough.
CPU doesn't need it, high end air cooling is more than sufficient to clock most Thubans as high as they will go (if you're doing this for overclocking).And unlike air-cooled systems, water-cooling requires periodic maintenance.You don't clean your air-cooling...?Maybe once or twice a year i'll clean my cooling pads, but no. I primarily use laptop computers and my desktop fans are in excellent condition....like in a clean-room..... The rest of us LIVE in a world with DUST ... I clean my desktop (and laptop, if I've used it) every month because I have pets and a very dusty room, doesn't matter how often I vacuum the carpet.  Without fan filters, like with my old Antec 900 case, the dust was unmanageable.
For most people, cleaning every 6 months or so should be fine, so watercooling doesn't really INVOLVE much more maintenance than air, what little there is is certainly outweighed by the advantages (when used wisely, i.e. not in the OP's system).My friend has a liquid cooling system that uses beer. He has to keep filling up the tank every two-three weeks. Sounds more expensive that cleaning fans....Beer?  Most people use, uh, water ... implied in the name.  Topping up a system every 2-3 weeks means he's got serious problems with leaking or evaporation, I suggest he looks into that.  Bringng costs into the argument is meaningless anyhow, I thought we were talking about the need for "periodic maintenance".  There's no question that watercooling is more exensive than air, at least initially - most things that are better do cost more.
