Well I finally got the system up and running and I had no leaks! I started Folding at Home again with this computer and I immediately saw a reduction in temperatures.
The room temp is around 17 - 19 degrees celcius so with the stock air coolers my idle temps were around 23 degrees. Under 99% load while Folding the temps were around 75 - 80 degrees.
With the water blocks my idle temps are 19 degrees and the load temps are only 32 degrees! The fan noise has been greatly reduced too. I can't wait to water cool my 932 rig!

I forgot to mention I'm using 3 Cooler Master Sickle Flow fans on my rad and even running at 100% (2000 rpm) they are quiet. My fan controller allows me to reduce them down to 40% speed at which point I don't hear them over the other case fans. The loudest fan, which I'm thinking to replace is the one on my H60. It's a 120mm fan from Ultra. It moves a lot of air, but it's noisy too.

Today my idle temps were 17 degrees while my room temp was 18.5! Is that even possible? I'm using the GPU Meter from Windows 7 gadgets. I wonder how acturate this gadget is???

Thanks bungwirez! Those are my room temps in the basement. I'm not much of a summer guy. My preference is the winter. You can dress for sub zero temps! Not much you can do when it 40+ outside with high humidity. On those days, my basement is the place to be! RFLMAO
