My System

Help me set up a water cooling system for this set up.

I need help seting up a water cooling system. I never had a water cooling system and don't know the terms too, so please be as specific as you can. Give me direct links to products, so that I can just add it to my basket and check it out. I would REALLY appreciate it. I'd love to buy from newegg.com, but if they don't have parts that I need I don't mind buying from another place (I live in California, just in case you need to know.)

I don't know how much it is going to cost me, but I have $500 that I can spend. I don't mind spending that much money for something that's going to do good to me, but I also don't mind saving money too. I hope I will have some money left over. I don't need the TOP-super-mega-high-quality-performance parts, but I want it to be decent and make sense for the $s I spend.

One more requirement that I have is that I want ALL parts of my watercooling system to be INSIDE of my case. The case I got is already too big! It is 24.8'' x 10.5'' x 23.6'' - HUGE! It was designed to fit a whole water cooling system inside of itself and I don't want anything outside of it.

I want to cool:
- processor
- north bridge
- video card
- anything else you suggest, if it makes sense.

Just in case you need this information, I am planing on overclocking a processor, maybe video card and memory too.

I know kits might be cheaper, but custom build always gets us more efficiency, so I would go that way, since I think $500 is more then enough. I've seen watercooling system set up for $300 on our forum. I might be wrong, it might have been low quality... I don't know... You tell me.

Ask me as many questions as you need, if needed.

Below is my systems set up:
