Might be a hydor in the first one.
The second one has a fucking retarded placement for the bottom rad.

My setup will be something like that of Cygnus_X_1's peltier cooling guide. I plan to have the BIX II above the case, I know it may look ugly, but maybe i can fix that later. The other BIX radiator will be on back side panel in the front (same side where mobo is) where I will cut a hole for that. The reason is that i have two 80mm fan's vertical in the front.

What's wrong with a rad on the bottom?

Ah, youre eyes are better than mine. Good call, I see it now too, looking at mine. It's hidden away on the 'drive' side of my case, I can't see the shit and forgot what it looks like.

Even with castors, I don't think you are going to get good air flow. Not to mention all the freaking dust that will be pulled up in there.

i like how the 1st one is configured cause rad out -> cpu in -> cpu out -> 2nd rad in -> rad out -> gpu in.
so the gpu is not getting warm water from the cpu but cooler water from the 2nd rad.

True about the upgrades. Im using a 9800pro right now with those big zalman sandwich looking heatsinks and the 80mm fan that comes attached with it.
If i do get another peltier for the gpu, is my Meanwell(12Volts, 25Amps Switching PSU) going to be able to give enough juice to it?

no..you will need another PSU or run off you systems PSU..if you can spare the AMPS....
226w pelt needs 24 amps @ 12 volts to run...thats about max for the meanwell
170w pelt need about 16 amps @ 12 volts...while the 80w pelt needs 8 amps @ 12 volts...
they also make 24 volt pelts also..but there temp delta is close to the 12 volt models...
look at the wattage and amp rating on your PSU 12v lines....your system already uses some of that.... just dont go over your amp rating....

a BIX2 rad with two really good 120mm fans should be good enough to get yah that 3.7 you want......alot of peeps try to get cooler temps..so they add more cooling power to get more lower temps...lower temps = better overclocks

which one would work better two heater cores or BIX2.
Plus what would be a good heater core: the chevy 76. Would two 80CMF fans be enough
