There isn't really a set budget as of yet and this build is by no means set in stone. I don't plan to water-cool the GPU because I don't play graphics intensive games. (I'm going to be doing my compiling and possibly video rendering/compression.) I'm not sure if the PSU is enough with all the additions. I plan to build an external tower for the radiator, and possibly build a completely custom case if I get the initiative. Do I need to get barbs for any of the water cooling parts or do they all come with good enough ones? Also is that enough rad to cool both the CPU and mobo on the same loop?
