Hi all.

I'm building in a pc-o7s and airflow is non existent so I'm trying my first loop. I am having to carefully consider each part due to available size and also aesthetic reasons.

So far I've got the following:
  • Bitspower MonoBlock ASR370TC RGB-Nickel Designed For ASROCK Z370 Taichi
  • Phanteks Glacier GTX 1080 Ti Aorus GPU full waterblock
  • Phanteks R160 or R220 RGB reservoir
  • DDC 3.25 PWM
  • XSPC TX360 Ultrathin radiator
I'm going to be using Chromed copper pipe for the build.

Probably https://www.screwfix.com/p/wednesbury-chrome-pipe-15mm-x-2m/54679

I will be getting chrome fittings and I don't have a brand preference.

What I would like to know is, what sort of fittings should I be getting?

I assume that I need to get 15mm fittings for hardline tubing to match the dimensions of the pipe I've selected, but how do the fittings then connect to the various blocks / rad / res?

Is there a standard size screw fit for all those parts that every fitting has?

Thanks!
 
Looks like I'm going to have to check the size of each port on my water blocks and res / rad and then get threaded fittings of that size which also match the tubing I am using.

And 15mm isn't a size of tube that I can find fittings for so I'm going to have to keep searching for tube / fittings.
