Hello, I'm trying to put together a new computer and I've decided that liquid-cooling is gonna be a feature in said computer. I've got a setup of what I've decided on so far here. I don't actually know all too much about water cooling which is why I've come to this forum for help. I was wondering if you guys might be able to suggest some parts that might fit my build well if I told you what I wanted. Since I'm planing to OC my CPU and GPUs, I'll need blocks on my CPU and my 2 graphics cards (as far as I know). I'm not sure what else needs water-cooling in the case, if anything. I'm going for a blue theme, and let's say that the budget can be anything, but I'd like it to be reasonable for the job it's performing. I'd also really like some sort of double helix tubing in one of my exterior 5.25" bays (I have 3) because, it looks cool (obviously not necessary, just something I figured could be added w/o much issue and would make the entire build look that much awesomer, or more awesome if you will). I tried starting off by looking at some reservoirs and I figured I would then look at a pump, tubing, radiators, etc. but I had trouble just finding what size the openings on the reservoirs I looked at were, either by fault of the websites I looked at being unclear, or by fault of my own inexperience. I want this build to be safe, so I don't mind spending a bit extra on compression fitting over barbs (from what I know so far, I'd prefer it, and I also don't know if I said that properly). In short, I'm hoping you guys can suggest some homebrew water cooling materials that I might be able to use. Also, if you could explain your selections so I can start to understand all this, that would be amazing, but of course don't worry too much about that.
Sorry for such a long post, but if any of you can help me, that'll be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: I'd also love some suggestions for good websites to look for watercooling materials on. Thanks again!
