Gonna give my 1st mini water cool GPU loop ago in my NZXT Phantom, been doing a lot of reading and i have come up with these components. Im

GPU Block- EK-FC5850 - Nickel

Pump/Res Combo- XSPC Single 5.25" Drive Bay 200 L/ph 12V Pump with Reservoir (Not to sure about this so would appreciate any advice)

Single Rad- EK CoolStream Radiator XT 120 (120.1) Not decided what 2 fans in push/pull setup to use yet

Tubing- Primochill PrimoFlex Pro LRT 1/2" ID - 3/4" OD (13-19mm) Tubing : White (Would like white UV so shopping around for it)

Clamps- Nylon Hose Clamp for 3/4" (19mm) Outer Diameter Tubing - Black

Barbs- /4" Thread High Flow Barb Fitting for 1/2" (13mm) ID Tubing : Black

Fluid- De-ionised Water 1 Litre

Im gonna say give myself a max budget of £150, i only really want a small loop as my cpu is cooled very well by my megahalems, id appreciate any advice on different components etc as i always value people opinions on these things

Many Thanks
 
Yea thats it the fan speed on the 5850 even at 50% is horrible, im guessing low noise fans like gentle typhoons will keep the loop fairly quiet, i just cant decide wat size rad i would need and if i should get a full cover block or just a core one

Just realized your location Sayso :) im just down the road from you in braintree
