If you're asking on this forum it will be far beyond your capabilities (no offense) but there is a lot of really interesting online information about how it all works.

Thanks you are 100% right they are very similar but after 3 weeks of waiting of course the day I actually ask the question the EK fittings are in stock oops.
 

Barrow offers a matte that should be very similar to the ek fitting.

I have a fix for me at least.
The problem is that the font on my PC disappeared so there is just the bold version. 
 
To fix it go to this link and download the Roboto Font folder.
google.com/design/spec/resources/roboto-noto-fonts.html
 
Then go to c:\windows\fonts and drag all the fonts from the above folder and restart your PC.
 
 

I'm sorry what the hell is this, a 1060 3GB is considerably faster than a 7950...

There isn't a difference with loop order as long as the res is above and right before the pump so it doesn't run dry. 

I love watercooling but it's the fastest way to piss money away and trying to mod that case the way you've descried will takes ages and will not turn out as well as you hope.
 
But if you choose to watercool please please change your case.

I'd go for two 22" unless you can get a 29" ultrawide. 

I didn't realize there was even a problem

Bad advice the 1600 is tons better

I'm not a fan of the "get Ryzen!" when the OP is wanting Intel, but i5's are a terrible value today. None of it is fanboyism, it's just true.
 
My old 2500k lasted a long time and the 6700k that replaced it is an awesome chip for gaming (went to GF since her PC was dying). Kabylake has been a very disappointing generation to the point I went AMD for my new personal build over the more obvious 7700.
 
With poor thermals (whatever mayonnaise they have the nerve to slap under the IHS) and complacency, Intel were caught with their pants down. They still have the IPC single core advantage, but the pricing for a pure 4 core CPU being the same as a 6 core 12 thread beast is insulting.
 
Building new today, I would go AMD if you wanna spend under 300usd for a chip or wait for Coffeelake to see if Intel will actually give consumers more for their dollar next gen.
 
Edit: Just wanted to add, I'm glad AMD is offering actual competition again. Ryzen definitely has some kinks and I do miss easy mode 4.5Ghz clocks, but it's a step in the right direction for both companies!

You won't get anything in that price range that will last 10+ years. My grandma's moto g 2nd gen ($200 CAD on contract, usually $300) from 2.3 years ago is already lagging to the point where it's almost unusable. All she does on that phone is text and read the bible (she is religious)

Also it's lottery and memory, not meaning any offence just thought I'd point it out  

If you haven't bought anything yet, seriously consider changing to a Ryzen 5 1600 and b350 MOBO.  For the money they are the best bang for the buck.
 

He talks about the R3 later on

Woohoo you can do it I believe in you

I dislike Chrome OS but it runs a hell of a lot better on a $300 lappy to the point where I massively prefer it too Windows

If you wanted to bend them you could easily but as long as you're careful you'll be fine
