Hi!
I build my wc system. I have 1/4 id tubing with fittings. My question is, sufficient this for only cpu cooling? (sorry my english is very bad). Thank's the help
 
is it a thermal take system ? ( they use 1/4 ID tubes usualy)

you will probobly get temperatures around the same as hifgh end Air cooling.

need more information on the rest of the components really !
 
not thermaltake, i build this system, with hydor seltz l10/l20, i have only 1/4 tubing with fittings, and by cpu block i can use cnc machine. Is 1/4 tubings sufficient, usable?
 
I would'nt advise it, you'd get the same temps as an ok HSF, going to 3/8 or even 1/2 would make quite a bit of difference
 
Unless you're space restricted in your case go with 1/2" ID tubing. If your machine is cramped go with 3/8" ID.
1/4" ID tubing is just too restrictive.
