Personally I recommend the TC PA 120.3 like DB suggested. (Phew thats a bunch of acronyms!) To give you some understanding on how bad ass that radiator really is heres a bit of anecdotal evidence. I left for a week on a business trip after overhauling my system. My system ran for a week straight with no active cooling on the rad. I came back used my system for a day or so before wondering why my system was so quiet! Trouble was that my fan controller, which controlled the 3 120's on the radiator took a shit. No crashes, no slowdowns, no issues. I was cooling: X6800, 2x 7900GTX, NB/SB, GTX vRegs, and 4 HDD's. (All Koolance blocks) Everything was at stock voltages, so that may of helped. I'd attribute the fact that the rad performed well is due to its sheer mass and surface area.
When Koolance releases a 1500w rad like the 120.3 I'll give it a try. Until then, Thermochill PA 120.3 FTW!
