Post Liquid Cooling
I'll be getting a liquid cooling system. These are what I've picked out:

Pump:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6835108063

North bridge block:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6835108079

Radiator:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6835108086

CPU block:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6835108093

Coolant:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6835103048

Of course I still need the tubes, which I will buy at a hardware store.



So my question is, for the people with water cooling, are those all the parts I need? Or am I missing anything?

I overclock.
Or say, I DID overclock, then my overheating alarm went off. Took my E8400 up to 3.75ghz.



...And those motherboard issues were due to lies on Intel's compatibility tables. It said it would work but it didn't.

I'd rather spend $250 and overclock slightly than keep my system idling at 55 degrees celsius and using 3/4 of my processor.

tubes pumps and something to diffuse the heat in

Also most coolants are just water + like two other chemicals. Use mineral oil if you really feel like being special.

I'd rather spend an extra $50 in a faster processor than $250 in cooling systems just to squeeze a few extra Mhz out of an old CPU. But if cash ain't a problem, I'd say go for it. After all, having weird shiny tubes running around your PC case is one of the best ways to increase it's overall awesomeness, specially if you add a couple of LEDs to make the whole thing glow. :P

And hey, at least your case is made of neat acrylic. Last time I buit a computer, I had to use a broken typewriter as a case because anything else was too expensive.

LEDs do not an awesome computer make. LEDs a cool computer make, but not quite awesome. LEGOs do an awesome computer make.
That, and anything that requires more effort than plugging a few things in. Like an engine.
