inspired by the original la kings jersey i am making a gold and purple build in a black case with white highlights (cables and radiators) the hardware is found here http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/2RNAE and i was hopping for people to suggest more gold items for watercooling, for example, gold plated waterblocks, fittings, reservoirs and even gold or purple dye. the tubing will be 3/8id 5/8od purple advanced lrt tubing. suggestions for pc parts also encouraged!!

my budget is hopefully for under 750 CAN for the watercooling parts but if i have to go over i guess i can.

probably going to get my cooling parts from frozencpu

if you are reading this you are wasting valuable time and should maybe rethink your life choices.

No 780 TIs with this budget?

Can't wait to see it.
You can save about $800 if you buy the parts from the US and pick them up just over the border. Something that might be worth thinking about.

Black and grey doesn't match?  Then why would you consider the Extreme11 from ASRock?

EVGA 780 Classy, 8GB Corsair Vengeance LP 1600Mhz

@Evostatic343 looks good but do you know how good is the Antec Formula 7 Nano Diamond 4g Thermal Paste when compared to IC Diamond?

not really, Its not worth the $100 premium.

thats your opinion and i respect it. but it offers more cooling functionality than th 750d and imo it looks way better

if you are reading this you are wasting valuable time and should maybe rethink your life choices.

Take a look at caselabs, if you want the best, you can repaint them, too.
