Cooling problems

[Fungalberry]

OK, here's my slightly more than potential rig:

ASUS A8N-SLI Premium Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD motherboard'

A-DATA Vitesta 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM System Memory

Western Digital Caviar SE16 400GB 3.5" Serial ATA150 Hard Drive

AMD Athlon 64 4000+ 1GHz HT Socket 939 Processor

One of those CD/DVD Drives

ASPIRE ATX-AS600W-GN 600W Power Supply

KINGWIN Aquastar AS-3000 Multi-Color LED Light AquaStar Liquid Cooler System

And finally:
eVGA 256-P2-N527-AX Geforce 7800GTX 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
----This thing's core clock is factory overclocked at 470MHz (opposed to other GTX's 430 MHz), and this is the part that I'm afraid about overheating.

Will my system run fine with only the water cooling system, stock cooling, and one rear fan? I'm very paraniod about overheating, but also want it to be quiet. Any other suggestions are welcome too.

Do you have the water cooling on the gpu, cpu, or both? If you have watercooling then that sould be perfectly fine. Post some load temps.

Gpu's run hotter than cpu's so if your idle temp is below 60°C that is pretty good.

I oced my rig and it's on air cooling. I don't worry about overheating. For you just make sure you have good ventilation for your case. With watercooling as long as it's running as it should, there should be no problem with heat as long as you don't oc too much. You need to use fans on fron and rear of the case even if you're using a water cooling system. Also use some good aftermarket thermal paste like the artic silver 5 for better heat transfer and cooling.
