Rear mounted rad/pump on the bottom of the case will make sense for a custom setup....BuckNasty has a prebuilt water loop so his pump is integrated in the block, if I remember correctly.
Not prebuilt, but partially built. I have the Swiftech H2o-220 compact with Rad mounted horizontally at the top of the Tempest case(Swiftech advises against horizontal mounting on this model radiator). 2 Ruilian Science 120mm fans draw air out of the case. it's a little tricky purging all the air from the system, but rock solid when finished. Not bad for $140.00 on Newegg.

*** note the 2 screws in between fans which hold the rad in place






I left the top cover off the case to improve airflow. I also have the case side panels off 24/7. The stock 140mm fans on the Tempest bite. These 120mm's that came with the Swiftech kit work great and can really move some air.
