Hey, This is my first WC build, so i only have a vague idea whhat to pick;
From the look of it, i may be getting the bulk of my build next week as the 5% code would still be valid (unless you recommend waiting which could be a possibility as £170 discount could probably be got from T.W.O. offers over the next few months.

anyway, this is the build (there will be a 4770k and a gigabyte sniper 5 in there too)

I was wondering if you could fine tune the watercooling so that it is 100% compatible.

This is what i am hoping to achieve. The pump being in the basement:

i dont think your fittings and tubing match sizes. you need to choose the same od and id.

If you are using barbs to attach your tubes to the other water-cooling components, then you only need to worry about ID, however if you are using compression fittings, you need to take into occount the OD of a tube.

for example, the fittings you have listed are:
Metric:
- ID 13mm; OD 19mm
Inch:
- ID 1/2"; OD 3/4"

so some suitable tubing would be:

2 x XSPC HighFlex Hose 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD, 19/12.7mm, 2m, Clear/UV


or maybe you want to choose some alternative fittings to match the tubing you listed, the choise is yours. just make sure they match.

you can also choose whether you want the uv reactive stuff or not and you might want to checkout the new primochill advanced range as it has its benefits (no clouding)


also the pump you have listed is currently out of stock and the ssd is pre-order.
