hi,

right, I got a senfu watercooling kit - i am not that impressed but it has wet my appetite. gonna build one. I'm fine about all of it, but one thing. pipes and connectors. What measurements do I use for pipes and connectors. and where do I get them? if your in the UK, where do you go for decent stuff?

most people use 3/8" hose ,,I use 1/4" cause it bends easier ,is more aerodynamic ,is cheaper ,,and shows almost no temp difference over the 3/8"

1/4" = 6mm
3/8" = 10mm or 1cm
