1st Water cooling loop (EK KIT P360)

[dangerouSoul]

hi guys, how are you?So i´m thinking of buying The EK KIT PERFORMANCE 360..Because my aio is failing and i´m tired of AIO´s.I wanna go custom. For now it is only the Cpu watercooled. My case has enough space for it. My question is i wanna a drain valve..And i will need MORE things, a 3 way Female splitter if i´m not mistaken too (Don´t quote me on that).. So i need your help..I have a wishlist on ek website. I will post it here.. Because i don´t know how many fittings / other things i`ll need..Can you help? I can explain more if you need.
What do you think about the EK Cryofuel blood red guys?

your going to need 4 more compression fittings/barbs for the drain and 3way block. if you want to attache a tube to the drain side of the valve youll need 1 more fitting. i usually go with a barb rather than a compression fitting for this one. its just easier to connect a barb and drain the loop quickly. youll want to get an extra foot or two of tubing as well. rotaries are a good option for making your drain line easier to position but with soft tubing you may not need them.
lastly make sure you draw a picture of your loop. so you know if you may need any 45 or 90 degree fittings etc.

I wanna do a simple loop bro, like rad to cpu,cpu to pump, pump to rad. For now i don´t want to watercool my msi 1080 gaming X because it doesn´t overclock alot, it oc´s well on memory though. i will sell it in 6 months or so. So did you see my wishlist above? Can you help me out more?To put it well for me to buy what i need? the side of the valve i was thinking a plug. Don´t know for sure..What do you think about it? The coolant on the wishlist above (Blood red) It is premixed right?I only have to pour it. Do i need to add biocide or something like it? i guess not ..

List to buy:

+ 4 compression fittings nickel G 1/4
+ Tube
+ Distilled water to flush rad.
