360 + 240 for 2x Titans + 1 CPU might be a bit "just enough", you wont be able to create a super silent system.

Ok, as per custom, we point to the watercooling stickies for you to read, so you get a better idea where you're going.

Besides that, i'ld suggest a Swiftech MCR-Drive 360 for the top, a "normal" MCR-QP 240 for the floor and an Apogee HD or XL for the CPU
and a handful of Helix fans

http://www.swiftech.com/Helix120mm-PWM.aspx

Of course there are legion of other possibilities, if you don't like the Swiftech looks, the Alphacool '45er radiators are very good.
And the XS-PC CPU Raystorm block is very good.
For pumps (DDC or D5) you'll have to see Swiftech or XSPC again.
Very good Radiator fans are the Noiseblocker eLOOP (pwm) or the Phobya voltage clones.

If money is not the issue... Aquacomputer has some VERY NICE stuff
And there is of course the Watercool HTSF & MO-RA series and the Phobya NOVA

thanks for ur reply,

2nd i need to buy all parts from frozencpu so if u can provide links there would appericate it,

3rd money is not an issue..

i want loop that is stylish and of best parts in performance and lowest risk..

the titans waterblock are swiftech so i need sli for the cooler as well..

and fitting and those were in my carts in frozencpu i choose for begigng with ..

Sleeve The Cable(s): Yes Please! ($9.99)
Select Your Cable Sleeve Color:
Select Your Heatshrink Color:
(1) Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper Triple 120mm Radiator
(2) Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper Dual 120mm Radiator
(2) Feser One Non Conductive Cooling Fluid - 1000 ml - Pure Clear
(1) EK Supremacy Universal CPU Liquid Cooling Block - Clean Acetal (EK-Supremacy Clean CSQ - Acetal)
(4) PrimoChill PrimoFlex Advanced LRT Tubing 3/8"ID x 5/8" OD - Brilliant UV Blue (PFLEXA-58-B)

well, i'm not gonna navigate the frozencpu site for you
sofar your choice of components is ok, although the feser fluid is a waste of money.
For starters, it stops being non-conductive like 5 minutes after you poured it in and the markup is even more terrible as the markup between tap water & Perrier Blue..
If they throw in the feser fluid for free, by all means take it, but you are waaaaay better off with a jug of WalMart distilled water at 50 cents a gallon and a silver killcoil or silver bullet

For SLI bridges:

Look at the Swiftech page for more detailes on how to choose the bridge you need

Pumps: a D5 variant: a VPP655 or swiftech MCP655+top ; The Bitspower D5 mod kits are nice also

Although the XSPC Photon is a very nice looking piece of kit

fans: as before noiseblocker eLoops
http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1...PWM_Fan_-_800_-_2000_RPM_.html?tl=g36c365s936
but you need the Swiftech 8-way PWM splitter also

here`s my cart so far...

left only tubing and fitting and i dont know if i will need fiting spiliters or not .. and liquid and SLI bridge for the Swiftech waterblocks on my titans... so i need suggestions money is not an issue and i need to know how to pick size of tubing and fittings ..

oh and i need transparent tubings and coloerd liquid best quality..

 

[EarthDog]

You should read those sticky threads... Get colored tubing. Dieing the water can lead to bad things...

 

[CiNCiTy]

i did read some stuff i dont understand so i need proper explination please.. if u can help why colord tubing leads to bad things ?? so what do u suggest now ?

 

[EarthDog]

I suggested above to use colored tubing instead of a dyed liquid.

 

[CiNCiTy]

Ok, thats not a problem any suggestions regarding best quality in tubing and about fittings what to choose and depends on what hardware part exactly ? and am i going to need fitting splitters ? and about the liquid i need best quality avaliable at the moment without any problem..

PS: am buying from frozencpu, although u can see that in the pic...

Thanks in Advance.

 

[EarthDog]

I have to run, but this info is in our sticky threads.. give it a read until someone can swing by and spoon feed ya.

 

[CiNCiTy]
