XSPC EX240 radiator fittings?

Hi all,

I'm currently looking to upgrade my cpu cooler from the AIO corsair h100i to a xspc 750 ex240 kit but i want to go the whole hog and go hard pipe even though it's my first waterbuild.

My question is i know they come with 1/4" barbs for the radiators but i'd like to use the primochill ghost fittings in white and just want to know wether these will fit the radiator and pump and cpu block ?

Sorry for the stupid question i just don't want to fork out for like 6 -(7 if i destroy one) fittings to find i can't use them. can any one help?

Thanks for the help guys , would i use the same fitting for the radiator as well?
I understand why most people would want/should use regular tubing but i have a spare pc to test and play with to get things right (as long as i order the right parts!)

Edit:
just checked my link i was up at 4am this morning and hadn't woken up properly i had just used the quick search on ocuk's website to get the link sorry guys!

YOUR BASKET
1 x PrimoChill Ghost Compression Fitting Acrylic Tube 13/10mm - White £5.39
Total : £11.36 (includes shipping : £4.98).

So if i was using a xspc raystorm 750 ex240 kit i could just swap out the barb fittings with 6 of these PrimoChill fittings? or would the bay/pump require i different style?

Thanks for the great advice! i really can't wait i've got a little store of pc parts to go with the watercooling build but instead i've been side tracked by doing things like fence painting and garage painting!

Hopefully i'll get a project log thread up when i start i know it won't be anything special like twin water cooled titan black's or anything but im hoping to spruce up an old cm 690 ii , with a new window as the current oem one comes with a fan slot , swap out the psu for a modular one to make it neater and also sort out the cable grommets as the corsair one's arn't a fit. and obviously watercool the cpu but maybe go the PETG route if i can find out more about it.
