do-it-center, home depot, local hardware store, plumbing store might have them
I've gotten them at Home Depot, they have an OK selection. Do not, however, expect much help from the people in that department at HD, they tend to be clueless in my experience.
I've also seen them at ACE, Lowes and a couple smaller hardware stores in my area.

I buy all of my fittings from ACE. Just go during the daytime when they usually have someone older who knows their stuff. I can get help with just about anything from them, but if I go to Lowe's or Home Depot, I can never seem to find anything I need. I have also found that ACE carries some barbs that Lowe's doesn't. I use 5/8" barbs for any res or heatercore/rad. The brass ones are the easiest to get 1/2" tubing over.

I'm with Voigt on this one the only downside was that I had to tkae a few minutes out of my day to explain water cooling to the person helping me and then he helped me and all was good. So I'm with ACE for getting them great prices also.

Yeah I learned my lesson after that one he even asked "Are you sure this has been done before?". Thats good advice for any water cooler never tell them what you really want to do just describe the problem
