Custom Water Cooling for I7 5820K And GTX 980 Sli

Hi guys, i am beginner in water cooling and i have some question.

Firstly my pc specs:

-Intel I7 5820K Cpu (I want OC to 4.6 Ghz)

-Asus Rampage V Extreme Motherboard

- 2x Asus ROG GTX 980 Poseidon GPU (I want OC to 1700-1800Mhz with custom bios)

-Corsair Obsidian 750D case

1) I'm thinking of buying these products:

CPU Block:

XSPC Raystorm

Reservoir-Pump:

XSPC Photon 170 D5 Vario Set

Radiator:

1x EK Coolstream PE 360 (for top)

1x Koolance Hx-360xc (for front)

And i will use acrylic tube

Are these products keeps it cool enough my system? What are your suggestions?

2) I want to buy valve for water and hardware replacement. Where (and how) should i put the valve?

(Sorry for bad english)

You won't be able to fit that Koolance 360mm rad in the front. The 750D only supports upto a 240mm or 280mm because the 5.25 inch drive cage isn't removable.

 

Given the restrictive front intake on the 750D, and that you are looking at a 240mm... alot of people mount in on the bottom instead of the front.

i can say you can fit 2 360 rads front one  as you probably know you have some modding in front of you. you may have some clearance issues with the two rads anyway i cant find if the top has to be a slim or the front for fans to be put on the top one . ill update my post if i can find some photos of what i mean .

 

for the valve if you mean a drain line the lowest part, if you mean a fill port either the top of your res or the highest point which would be your top rad if you have one with top G1/4 holes which would mean more modding to cut a hole thur the top of the case .

for how to put one in i used this http://koolance.com/nozzle-body-4-way-brassoff of my pump intake with a double rotary 90 and extension 30mm+50MM with a plug on the end .
