Hey, this is my first time building a custom loop. I want to cool my processor (i7 3770k) and graphics card(Zotac gtx 770 4gb edition). My case is a corsair 300r. I need help finding the right reservoir, pump, gpu water block, cpu water block, tubing, fluids, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

Links to processor and GPU if needed.

Budget?

Location?

Colored tubing or liquid?

Bay or tube reservoir?

Tubing size preferences?

I'll get a list going once I know those things!  :)

400 max but if it can be cheaper 300 would be perfect.

location: internal 

colored tubing 

no preference for tubing size.

 

Sorry if i missed anything like i said this is my first time

Ok. I'll try to fit that budget, but it might be tough.

I can follow the list you made over there but could you help me find a waterblock for my GPU... I have been searching all night and im very confused. 

Most of the other stuff is pretty straight forward. Im just having trouble finding the right water block
