Hi everyone! just finished building my first PC with these specs:

CPU: Ryzen 3700x

GPU: EVGA 2080 Black edition

Motherboard: MSI x570 Gaming Plus

PSU: EVGA Supernova 850W

SSD: 500G Samsung 850 Evo

Case: H500p Mesh CoolerMaster

I am looking to make a new watercooling loop but it would be my first one and i was looking for some advice on if this is a good, and compatible loop:

EK Fluid Gaming A120 https://www.ekfluidgaming.com/ek-kit-a120 kit with the upgrades of:

I know that the EK Fluid line-up is an attractive price-point, but in my opinion I would rather go with some of the well-known Chinese brands from eBay. 

 

If you are set on buying from EKWB however, and find that the Classic line-up is too pricey, then I suppose that the parts you have listed will be fine (as long as your case can support a 120mm and a 360mm rad, I was too lazy to look).  Just keep in mind that you will need some more fittings for your GPU block, because it doesn't look like they come with any. Unless you're going to ditch the 120mm radiator.

Preference, I like the looks and have had good luck with the EKWB CPU and GPU blocks.  People here would tell you otherwise, but that is my experience.

 

Fittings I usually go Barrow from eBay.

 

Rads, I've only used EK. But I've heard HardwareLabs is the absolute best.

 

Pump/Res, whatever you can get that has a D5 pump and that looks good to you.
