Hello there, my obligatory WC parts thread here. I have a MCP655 from Swiftech, so I didn't include that. I'm really going for looks more than performance. I've decided on a black and white color scheme because I feel like that would look very slick and would go with a lot of stuff.

 

Case is a 900D I want to mount the res between the grommets using industrial Velcro.  Current cost for this stuff is about 400 bucks, would like to get it to 300 if possible. Any suggestions/improvements would be appreciated.

change the compression fitting selection. yours shown are for rigid/acrylic tubing,

since you've elected to use LRT tubing. use barbs till budget gets blingier.

 

for a cpu only loop,

opt for the UT60 240 - $72

2x akasa 120 apache fans - $30

Bitspower Water Tank Z-Multi 250 - POM $39

 

now you are $300

Good catch on the compression fittings. I'll have to find others.

 

And maybe I should have been clearer regarding budget. I intend on getting a 580mm rad because 1) I have the space 2) I will WC my GPU when I get a new one. I was talking more along the lines of "If there is something that is the same but cheaper suggest it to me".

 

That being said, any good white compression fittings that would preferably come in a multi-pack? I know bitspower has some sweet ones, but I couldn't find a multi-pack version.
