Thats fine. I'll try to cut down on unnecessary costs, but if it becomes out of your budget I would consider taking out the cpu block. And take attention of my note in the radiator part.

CPU Block: Aquaxtreme MP-1 $48

GPU Block: Swiftech MCW60-R $44.90
*You might want to find some ramsinks to cover the ram on the card.

Radiator: Swiftech MCR-220 $40
*This is where it can get tricky. You'll have to find a place where the radiator can get fresh air. If not inside the case, you must mount it outside. This can help out: Swiftech Radbox. This is probably going to be necessary for the P180.
*If you want some better performance, the MCR320 would be a highly suggested choice if you can fit it. Only a few dollars more.

Pump: MCP 655 $80

Reservoir: Swiftech MCRES $20
*I would personally get 2 additional high flow barbs just because the stock ones are a pain.

Tubing: MasterKleer 7/16'' AND 1/2''
*I personally prefer the 7/16'', but its harder to get on. Looks better and has tighter grip. I would suggest you get 8ft of each to see which one suits you better.

Clamps: Worm Drive Clamps

Additives:
IF you want some color get this and follow the instructions: Pentosin G11 $4.50
IF you just want some anti-algae colorless substance, use this and follow instructions: PT Nuke $2.50
*ALWAYS use distilled water to dilute!

FANS: This is a personal choice, But I would go with the Yate Loon D12-SL or SM from Petras. Choose SL for quiet.
