Picking QuickDisconnects

[kael13]

So I was thinking of grabbing a couple of Koolance QD3s to fit to my bottom Alphacool UT60 rad which has an extra port for draining and making life easy. The thing is, there's so many on offer I'm having trouble sussing out what I need. I guess the one in the case needs to be as small as possible as it has to fit snugly behind the dust filter of my 750D.

Taking my inspiration from this, so I will probably need a 90degree fitting there as well, but that's the easy part! Wondering if I'd need something that rotates forward if the QD3 pairing end won't fit in there along with the tubing for draining.
Any advice? Thanks!

Get a female QD3 with threads on it so you can screw it into the rad: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-143-KA (except in the nickel finish, black ones go bad quick)

and then get a male QD3 with a compression end or barb on it in a size you like. You can switch it around and get male QD3 with male threads for the rad with a female QD3 w/compression or barb as well but the first set is usually cheaper.
