is this a good watercooling set up

Just putting it out there, CPU only loop is usually not worth it. If you're going to add a GPU you might want to add another 120mm or or 240mm, though in theory a 360 rad would be enough for a GPU and CPU with decent fans not pushed to the extreme.

I would advise against water cooling kits and 5.25 bay res/pump combos.

jesus the water cooling section is dead

It should be quite a nice cooler. you should get this loop however if purchased seperately you might save and get a better case for watercooling.

So, if I were to build a custom loop just for my 4770k, it wouldn't make a big difference in temperatures when compared to the H100 I am currently using? The reason I wouldn't want to liquid cool my GPU's too is because, I really like how they look and I also would probably upgrade them more often than I would my CPU.

It would be a few degrees cooler than an h100i, significant enough, but when you use water cooling part of the aspect is looks, noise, and overall performance and with a GPU not in the loop you're missing out on those two aspects and gaining only CPU performance.

The gains of a CPU only loop are marginal over a 240mm AIO if that's as far as you go.

 better case for watercooling.

 

the kit without the case is £309

Oh never mind then. Im in America where liquid cooling is a lot cheeper than that.
