i was thinkin of going water Cooling

Not really worth it since a Titan Fenrir plus a good case(like the Fractal Design Define R2 with all fans) offers excellent performance.

Unless you want total silence of course.

Well, WC will still perform better than the Titan Fenrir. However, it's a big cost, not to mention a hassle to set up. I'd stick with air cooling for now, anyway.

It's not really a hassle, it's more of a hassle to take apart.

And rule of thumb.

NEVER EVER re use coolant.

I know; waste of money. Distilled water with 5-25% (wide variation) antifreeze performs better and is dirt-fucking-cheap.

Unless you really aim for the silence...There isn't that much of a point.

Instead of 3x5870s get 2x5970s, 1x5970 has better performance than 2x5870s

...Well that's just not true. Benchmarks I've seen put the 5970 ~ 2 x 5850s.
