That's a nice kit, makes me want to dump my Res and go seperates... There are alot of nice radiators, pumps and waterblocks on the market. I especially like the reservoir integrated into the pump in that kit. Don't feel like doing all that though, it's hard to swap out parts when everything is connected. Have to make sure you don't touch anything for a while.
I would go all out... cpu, nb, sb, vr on the mobo... gpu, ram, vr on the video card... even dimms? Why not, if it generates heat, cool it!

My Reserator is looking forward to this season also...

Not to mention hard to do and not too beneficial.... just slap some copper ramsinks and a fan somewhere on there and be done with it
