Okay, So it turns out I still have a few days before I can buy my system.
Anyway, It'll be i7 and I was wondering if you could spec me a high quality/performance & low maintenance water cooling loop for my CPU only!

Its my first build, and I've never watercooled anything. So try to keep it as simple as possible too and at the same time relatively "high-end"

It should all end up in a Lian-Li PC-A70.
 
I'm still uncertain as to whether or not I will opt for water cooling, So budget is just what you think would be appropriate for a small CPU cooling loop.
Maybe say £100 max
 
You'll need a cpu water block (about £35), a pump (from £25), a radiator (from £17), a fan (about £8) and tubing / other ancillery part as a minimum and this is doing it on the cheap. You could probably get away with £100 but it'll be tight once you've added delivery.
 
Forget it. You can't do i7 water-cooling for £100.

EK-Supreme block - £40
XSPC Dual 750 Bay Reservoir & Pump - £40
Barbs & Tubing - £10
XSPC RS360 120mm Radiator - £30
3 x 120mm fans - £10

And that's £130 using bottom-end pump and radiator. "high-end" would add another £70.
