OCUK Kits

I'm looking through the kits available from OCUK, and being my first water cooling attempt I'm not sure what to go for. I'll be installing into an Air 540 and will only be cooling the GPU initially. I want a 360 x 60 rad, but the reservoir and pump should be capable of servicing 2 off 360 x 60 rads (will add the second rad when I mod the loop to include the CPU).

Ideally I would also like one of the reservoirs that are cylinder shaped like this (although I'm not sure how much ml I need for the 2 rads) :

Is there such a kit available, or am I looking at buying separates?

Edit to add, I know the kit won't include the water block for the GPU.

Looking at buying separates if you're quite adament on getting a tube res and cooling the GPU. 95% of kits out there cater for CPU only.

Thought as much, I'll put a parts list together shortly. Thanks.

Where are you planning on mounting the second radiator in the 540?

That size reservoir in a loop with a 360 and 240mm radiators requires about 1.5l of coolant. So you will probably need two bottles of coolant for your loop.

Yea you are right, a 360 on the front and a 240 on top.
