Waterloop update is up! Yeah, I made a couple of stupid mistakes but hey, it doesn't look too bad right?

Quick question, how much did the loop cost you?

If you want to build a custom loop this is very easy to use and it will give you an idea of how much it will cost

£80 (1 rad, pump, res, tubing, fluid) + £25 for other rad + £45 for fittings

 

So about £150

Very good deal! Did you get the parts brand new?

Only one of the rads and the fittings, frankly I don't mind used as long as they work and don't leak  

 

On a side note, it did save me roughly £50-70 while getting slightly better parts, such as a DDC pump.

Semi-update: The MX100 256GB+1TB WD Black has been replaced by a sole MX300 1050GB courtesy of my mother as she needs a new PC (I'm building it) and she thought it would be a good idea to take my old drives for her "new" system and bought me a new SSD instead  

 

I'm not complaining...except how I just reinstalled windows less than 2 weeks ago...

my moms external 3tb drive corrupted so i had to scan it and then recover 3tb of data to my hdd at a very slow transfer rate then reformat the external drive and put it back.

i haven't finished yet...

Come on, water loops aren't too expensive if you don't want high end stuff

Actually waterloops are quite cheap if you go with the "bare minimum" and soft tubing

I would go with soft tubing regardless  It is very hard to upgrade parts if you have hard tubing
