Still mulling over going to water as I really do like the look and the idea behind it
Here my plan
YOUR BASKET

1 x EK Water Blocks EK-Coolstream RAD XTC 420 £79.98
2 x EK Water Blocks EK-FC670 GTX - Acetal CSQ £64.99 (£129.98)
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-Coolstream RAD XTC 280 £59.99
1 x EK-Supremacy - CPU Waterblock - Copper Acetal £51.98
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-RAM Dominator X4 - Acetal CSQ £32.99
2 x EK-FC670 GTX Backplate - Black £19.99 (£39.98)
2 x Mayhems Pastel - Ice White Coolant 1L £14.99 (£29.98)
1 x EK-FC Bridge DUAL Serial CSQ £13.99
2 x XSPC HighFlex Hose 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD, 19/12.7mm, 2m, Clear £6.98 (£13.96)
12 x EK PSC Compression Fitting 13mm 3/8" - G1/4 - Black £3.89 (£46.68)
12 x EK-PSC Adapter Rotary 45° G1/4 Black £3.59 (£43.08)
Total : £645.14 (includes shipping : £10.50).
Ive got 140mm fans already hence the rads and this is all going in a switch 810 so plenty of room to work with also i know the mem block is over kill an not really needed but for 30 quid plus a couple of fittings it looks cool and i might as well
However im wondering about the pump. Ive seen the d5 is better but ocuk dont seem to do any d5 sets like with the ddc is the ddc that much worse than the d5? also with the ddc whats better the 10 or 18w pumps? obviously the 18w will move more water but is it really needed? ive got high flow blocks and no right angles so its going to be enough right? or is it worth just going for the 18w anyway, noise isnt an issue the pc isnt left on all the time and I game with a headset on so 5-10db isnt a big concern
