Corsair or Bitspower or EK in terms of build quality and performance????

Go with the one you think looks better for your build.

They are on the same playing field when it comes to build and performance.

@Fasauceome

as if I know that much about water cooling fittings...

 

unfortunately my water cooling knowledge is basic and I really just go with big name stuff like EK

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

Aesthetics play a big role. I am quite fond of EK Torque fittings. Outside of that, you really just need the right fittings for the build. You have to consider what size tubing you want to use and whether it's rigid or soft. Also the size of the build. You're not using Torque fittings if you have tight space runs. So at the end of the day, more info is needed.

will use Hard line water tubing. and 12 mm(1/2in) standard

Lots of room available in the case Corsair 1000D.

So what's the recommendation now?

EK Torque or Corsair fittings.

Corsair fittings are just Bitspower fitting without the hideous tribal tattoo design.

Remember, these are just recommendations based on my personal preference.

 

Also keep in mind that you'll want to get more fittings than you think you'll need.

So, are they the same with tattoo and the other with no tattoo?

So what's about tubing?

Should I go with:-

1. Acrylic

2. PETG

3. Nickel Plated tubing

Not thinking about the difficulty and price or aesthetics only PERFORMANCE like no build up or corrosion or something like these problems

PETG would be my preference among those. There’s no substitute for loop maintenance. The loop will perform within margins of error with any of these. It’s up to you how well that is, not necessarily the tubing. 
 

Tubing is heavily, heavily preference based.
