Need help on selecting parts for watercooling.

[TechLevel1]

So just out of curiosity what is the best fitting, radiator, and water block on the market? I'm asking this out of curiosity because me and my friend are going to blow money on a overkill rig for another guy who cant afford a lot of money (you can guess why), so anyways we were planning to build a overkill PC but were wonder about 3 thing,:

 

1. What is the best fitting for future proof water cooling?

2. What is the best radiator? (We are going to build this in a Corsair 900D)

3. What is the best water block for  a Titan Z?

 

Additional Details:

 

-Budget has been drop kicked out the window.

-This build is going to be done is the Corsair 900D

-We are also using a HPATX motherboard because the guy is wanting to become a 3D rendering engineer thingy  but he loves video games more than anything so thats why we got the titan z.

-Please do not insult us and thanks for the support!

Please.. NOT a TITAN Z! Just grab two titan blacks for a 2/3 of the price!

maybe even 3 titan blacks, or four :3

 

 

You could do 1x360 on the front, 1x480mm on the top,1x 140mm on the back, and another 480mm on the side.

 

This would be if you got 4 titan blacks + a 4960x or something, as well as if you wanted to cool your ram, motherboard, etc. 

If you're firm on a titan Z, then 1x360+1x240 should be fine.

Ya, reasonably speaking I would but we are here to blow money! But can you link me to any supplies needed for water cooling (by any I mean ALL parts needed for water cooling) Thanks!

CPU blocks is purely aesthetics, the performance difference between most majors is 1-3°

You wanna blow money go with SLI and cool them both. Much PC-sexier in that config. Blow your budget on the cooling!

There's no real way for "future-proofing" fittings. They all follow standard international sizes, which have been in use for the last many years. Watercooling is just physics, and there aren't really any new ways to improve physics, when talking about fittings. Or if there are any new advancements in "Fitting Technology" then it probably would only save you a fraction of a degree on cooling.

 

The newest thing in fittings are hardline fittings, which are purely aesthetic.

Maybe he's gonna use software like 3Ds max...

Software like this doesn't support SLI, even Unreal Engine 4 don't support SLI.

That's the reason developer's card are expensiver than SLI.

SLI is for gamers, and I believe he's not gonna game on titan z.

Sorry for going off topic, I was just clearing up.
