Best cooling solution with these specifications:

I plan to thrid-party cool my A64 3200+, chipset on the MSI Neo4 Platinum, and GPU on the powercolor x800xl (plan to upgrade to the next gen next year). I'd rather have something that cools these chips well and take up a ton of room (like the EXOS2) than a tiny solution that doesn't cool very well. THe point for me to upgrade my cooling is for extreme cool and quiet. I have a stock HSF on the CPU and that thing is LOUD IMO. I really don't want to stick with air cool, because then I have to buy a whole bunch of individual components that could cost the same as a liquid solution but not perform as well or be as interchangable as a liquid solution.

My case is the LianLi pc-60 so I won't need to cool my HDDs with the dual 8cm fans blowing right over them.

Any suggestions? Looking into EXOS2, but reviews say that for the money, it doesn't perform as good as it should. ideas, suggestions? (any phase change cooling under $500 that can cool GPU and CPU appreciated, but I can't find any)
 
Asetek Waterchill 3x120mm fan Radiator edition for the absolute best W/C money can buy other than custom-built kits . . . the P4 version of this badboy can keep a Prescott at 35C on LOAD!!

I have an Asetek Waterchill Anarctica on my 3800+ Newcastle (similar to this kit but older) and it's GREAT . . .

Not exactly Phase-Cooling but it'll save you the $$ and still cool your system VERY well . . . and it's quiet . . .
 
cool, thanks! I guess I shoudl watch my tounge when i say space is of no concern. I just didn't imagine 3 120s! lol
I'm looking into asetek now. Somone on the vapochill forums got the single 120mm fan kit into a lianli pc-60 by drilling a bigger blowhole. Fit the whole cpu-gpu-chipset + pump setup in and clealy mind you. I only have to worry about my modstream 520 PSU cables getting in the way. may need to cut the plastic sheathing to get them to bend enough to put a radiator in the blowhole area.
If I can find a way to fit the dual 120 rad in or out of my case without too much modding, i'll definately do so
