Complete WC noob!

Hi guys, I've never WC'd ever before but been reading a fair chunk as I'm a tinkerer by nature and this appeals to me! Anyway, I want to take the plunge and wondered if you could check this spec for me. It's just a single loop to an i7 920 in a HAF 922 but I've tried to pick a good pump so that when I upgrade my gfx card I can add that to the loop as well with another radiator at the back. This double rad will be mounted at the top of my case as there is room for it stock there. So tell me what you think and help me out! thanks

EK Kits are a good starting point to look at! entery level but there a good starter kit, but future proof im not to sure as iv already changed my Rad and Pump.

i would look at the EK kits first and see what you think of them and go from there.

them rads are not the best.

so to save you cash to buy a better rad

get rid of the clips there not needed and the easy mount kit is not needed also that green fluid will just clog your blogs. so use distilled water and get coloured tubing

not that much of a problem TBH.

Rad, have a look at the XSPC EX ones

+1 on the EX 240 if you want a slim rad.

Also,

get a top for the pump
replace those fans with gentle typhoons
get a masterkleer tubing kit instead (better value for money)

koooowweeee doesn't know what he is talking about the green fluid will not block you block in any way.
