I'm new to the concept (and a bit intimidated I must admit!) of water cooling, but my new rig is so noisy and hot, I need water cooling. Since I don't know anything about WC, I thought I'd buy an external kit, and has settled for the Aquaduct 240.

Will the Aquaduct 240 be sufficient to cool the Q6600 and the Geforce card, if I settle for a cuplex xt and the aquagrafx GTX GPU water blocks? In which or...
