Hi i need some help in picking QD3 Quick Disconnect.

Here is the setup
2 on the bay res
2 on the radiator
2 on the cpu block
2 on the gpu
I need Threaded G 1/4 so that i can directly fit them to bay,radiator,cpu block and gpu.
But i am stuck not sure in what to get?

I might even need an few angle ones to and must match the other QD3.

I am not sure in what to buy need help.

Me be if some can help pick some parts i would be great full.

You sure you need one on every component?

What size tubing are you using?

Maybe it's better if you post a pic of your rig. Then we might be able to find a better or at least cheaper solution :)
 
You will not want a pair of QDCs between everything. Depending on your loop setup a pair before your CPU block and after your GPU blocks should give you enough flexibility if you want to upgrade regularly.

That said if you want to have a quick disconnect pair screwed into an inlet (or outlet) of a block you will most likely want a QD3-MG4 (which has a 1/4 bspp thread) and a QD3-F13X19 (for 13mm (1/2") ID tubing). The MG4 pair will screw into things like this if you need an angled connector going in or out.

If you want to have a pair between tubing you will want a QD3-M13X19 and a QD3-F13X19.

Be careful when ordering - lots of places don't stock both the male and female parts or just sell one and don't have the stock number listed on their webpages.
 
the case will be
caselabs magnum-tx10-v and the radiator will be at the top chamber.

The radiator i have picked is
Phobya Xtreme SUPERNOVA 1260 Radiator

Dual Drive Bay Reservoir
Monsoon Series Two Premium Dual Drive Bay Reservoir for One Laing D5 Pump with Quick Change LED : Black / Red
Yes I want hreaded G 1/4 on every component.

need some help in Koolance QD3 Quick Disconnect help setup which one will go where.

here what im thinking

I will fit
QD3 Male Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Male Threaded G 1/4 BSPP
SKU: QD3-MG4
on all of the pc parts.

Then on the Bay Reservoir i will fit 2 QD3 Female Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Compression for 10mm x 13mm (3/8in x 1/2in)
SKU: QD3-F10X13.

On the cpu block i will fit 2
QD3 Female Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Angle Compression for 10mm x 13mm (3/8in x 1/2in)
SKU: QD3-F10X13-L
so that it will then go to the gpu.

First GPU block will have fit 1 QD3 Female Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Compression for 10mm x 13mm (3/8in x 1/2in)
SKU: QD3-F10X13 then i will use sli bridge the gap and then the second gpu i will use 1 QD3 Female Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Angle Compression for 10mm x 13mm (3/8in x 1/2in)
SKU: QD3-F10X13-L
which will go back in to the Bay Reservoir.

Bare in mid that first thing i would do is put QD3 Male Quick Disconnect No-Spill Coupling, Male Threaded G 1/4 BSPP
SKU: QD3-MG4
on all of the pc parts.

What do you think am i correct in this or did i do something wrong??
