Hi everyone. As part of the upgrade to the Caselabs Mercury S8 I am also having to modify my H220x cooler to be able to reach the MB CPU position. I'm taking the opportunity to upgrade pump and reservoir in preparation for adding my GTX 980 to the loop (with a 120.3 radiator addition as well).

I went with Primochill Rigid tubing and am curious what the best fittings might be? Does it matter?

Thank you guys! When I get all the parts I will take photos of the build process and post a new thread.
 
Thanks for the advise, I did not know they were specific to the type of tubing.

That being said, I am looking at http://www.primochill.com/product/p...in-id-x-12in-od-straight-knurled-grip-4-pack/ . I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I was assuming that there would be an entirely separate component that would fix to the tubing, that would then attach to this linked compression fitting 1-to-1. Is that a wrong assumption?

I will also need to adapt from the 1/4" on the components to the 3/8" ID tubing. It looks like this coupling http://www.primochill.com/product/r...n-id-x-12in-od-straight-knurled-grip-coupler/ may be what I want as well?

Thanks in advance! I really don't want to deal with returns.
