Hi going to go for WC after thinking about it for to long what elce do I need for this to be complete no surfe about tubes and fittings ect.

EK 1/2" Hose fittings, 2 for the pump, 2 for the cpu block.
7/16" tubing - get 3-4 meters (you'll have some left over but best to have spare than not enough.)
im not sure if the thermochill rads on ocuk come with the fittings, if they dont you'll need - Thermochill 3/8"BSP to 1/2" Barb (x2)

7/16" tubing will fit very tight over 1/2" barbs, eliminating need for hose clamps

i would also get 2 litres of feser. you'll have some left over but again worth having too much not too little.

OK thanks also do you think that pump will be power full enough for when i add a graphics card into the loop.

yes 10w should be fine

Definitely - and as the 10W and 18W are exactly the same pump, you can always just solder a bridge inside that makes it an 18W if you like later on.

Personally I use PFTE tape, and it might be useful to order some from here rather than going to B&Q if you find your connectors leak.

You haven't got any fans listed simbady.
