HI there!
I've read a lot last days, mostly here but not only, about water cooling custom loops...
But i'm still overwhelmed when about fittings...
Defo i need some help here.
My loop will have:
1. First radiator, XSPC AX360 on top
2. Second radiator, XSPC AX280 in front of pc
3. The pomp: XSPC D5 Photon v2
4. CPU Block, i was thinking to XSPC Raystorm Pro but... i've read that is not the best one... i am open to any advice!
I intend to use rigid tubes, 16mm.
The water cooling system will look like this one:

I will change very soon the GPU so the fitting and GPU block is out of mind now, i will connect the tubes and near by the GPU i will bend the tubes leaving enough tube for the next fittings.
I really have no idea what fittings to buy and what brand, etc.... and any help here is much appreciated!

I have posted a link to all my fittings the W/C gallery thread above, my build is still work in progress as I am changing shortly.
 
I'm going to change the bottom piece of tubing as it doesn't look right, It only done it for a experiment. However, I maybe getting another FTW3 card to add into the loop.

I also have some perspex (PSU cover) on the way so I can tidy up the PSU mess so that will need the tubing to be changed.

Do like the Singularity res etc... Been eyeing those up for future builds myself.
