Help with a WC setup for my new case

It's a Bitfenix Prodigy so I don't have a ton of space, also I don't want to loose my optical drive so I'm not looking to put a big honking rad up at the top. I can't find any info here, but I'm thinking I might be able to mount a single or maybe even double 120mm rad vertically in this case, maybe 2 (1 front, 1 back) Here's what I'm looking at parts wise

XSPC RayStorm
Phobya DC12-400 pump
Phobya Xtreme single 120mm Radiator
Cougar 120mm fan for radiator
FrozenQ Liquid Fusion V Series 160mm Reservoir
Heatkiller GPU-X³ 79X0 (with backplate)

Looking inside possibly there's only room for the rad in the front as in the back there's a circuit board for the side panel usb/power button which might get in the way. MB's an ASRock Z77e-itx, the back has a stupid mSATA SSD port so not all backplates fit right.

Look on the overclocker.net website under their small form factor. They have a lot of prodigy water cooling builds.
 
ur not going to get what u want off 2 small rads and a cpu+gpu.

I would really say bye bye to the optical, and get a USB optical to use when needed and go with the top mounted radiator.
 
This is what I did. I have seen better uses of space else where, but this should give you an idea of what you can fit.
