Hi All.
So, I've just migrated my system + new parts over to my new Case (View 31) - https://ibb.co/fNdrCw
I'm planning on upgrading my Mainboard to the ROG X299-E & CPU to the i9 7920X with new RAM.
I have already mounted my GPU on the vertical mount with a riser and love it. My 8 year old PSU died so I've just invested in a new 1000W Gold 80+ Corsair RM.
As you can see from the pic i have ample space for my Custom Loop that's why i chose the View 31, so this is where i need the help...
For whoever took the time to read and reply i thoroughly appreciate it in advance
Thanks!

- Waterblock - I'm pretty settled on my waterblock, looks great and the reviews again seem fantastic (unless someone has some advice/experience with it) - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/xspc-raystorm-neo-waterblock-intel-chrome-wc-440-xs.html
- Radiator - Does anyone have any advice on which one and why? I have plenty of room so wanted a 360mm radiator with 3 fans for the roof of the case, i have ample room for a 360 mm radiator. Since there is a few i was considering this - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ek-water-blocks-ek-coolstream-xe-360-triple-wc-842-ek.html thoughts?
- Pump/Reservoir Combo - I understand i need good flow etc especially since i plan on adding cooling for my GPU's in to the loop at some point, and since there are stacks of choice i thought this looked the best and has great reviews - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ther...s-reservoir-and-pump-combo-rgb-wc-008-tt.html - Again, will this work okay in the loop and whats people's thoughts on it & is there anything i need to know?
- Here's the part that i really need help with, Tubes and fixings. Do i go full hard (non-acrylic tubes) or soft tubes. If you recommend soft tubes, to make it look good, is it easy/good to use 90 degree compression fittings to give the tubes a straight look to them (hope that makes sense) Also what size tubes and fixings would i need as there are so many.
- Lastly fluid, I've been looking at the different types and i like the look of the XSPC UV Coolant (pre-mixed) Thoughts on the best and where the UV is good and whats the best way to get an aesthetically good look from it. I also want to make sure i have a drain valve built in to the system, again what would i need for that in regard to the pump/res & fittings?
