possibly unnecessary clarification:

Custom loop case I take it?

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

@Bombastinator Yes. RX550 and R3 2200G

i know there's much fun in building stuff but I doubt there are any blocks for the 550 and the 2200g isn't especially powerful. Water cooling is not a sensible option for a low end system.... If you'd invest the money in better components and build a custom case without watercooling which would be complicated enough, you're probably better of

There could possibly be something gained for the 2200g because it older zen and heavy cooling can make them go faster.  Not faster than a newer design chip though.  It really doesn’t seem worth it for that hardware.  It’s a lot of labor for a small gain that might not even happen..  If you had an older bigger cpu like a 1700 or something and a bigger video card it would possibly be more worth it.
