Definition of bleeding is to get rid of all the air in the system. The only system which has air should be your reservoir.

When you push water though the blocks, they push the air out, if air is stuck in a rad, then you dont get the full benifits of the water, hence craptasic temps. 😀

You dont want big air bubbles stuck in your blocks/rad/(pump <--expecially this you'll kill it)

The tiny little bubbles usually bleed out over time. If you top mounted the radiator, i say you need to tilt it back and forth a couple of times thought the bleed. Top mounted radiators are the toughest to bleed if left alone.

Ok I opted to go with the Zalman F3s. I didn't want to do a bay-slot fan controller for all the fans, so I went with individual fan-mates for the four. Should be a bit easier to manage the wiring than if I had a bay controller.

I also bit the bullet and got Silverstone's CFP51, which converts three 5.25" bays into four 3.5" slots, and has an intake fan in front. My hard drives are mounted near the top of the case, so I think their heat may be contributing to my bad temps as well (two raptor 150s+ storage drives).
