Red tubing watercooling

Frozencpu has excellent kits - I originally started with an XSPC kit which are great quality. Get on with the variable speed motor and the largest rad you can. Should be able to do that for under 500. 

 

Also, I would recommend red tubing (which you would need to buy in addition to the kit as they normally come with clear) versus red coolant/die. The tubing is less likely to fade and you typically get a better "red" with the tubing then you do the coolant or die.

Thanks, I'll try to follow what you said, I'm kinda new to it.

This kit - bay res, integrated D5 vari pump, nice 240 rad. 7/16" tubin/fittings which are ok.

Some nice red tubing...

 

Then you just need some distilled water, get that at your local drug store or grocery store. Also, check the stickies/faq in this section as they have a LOT of info and watch Linus's various WC videos...

 

Want to cool a GPU as well? No problem, add in another 240mm rad (or 360 if you have room) and two more fittings and the GPU block that fits your fancy. Also, maybe some additional tubing if you don't have any left. :)

You could refill a swiftech H220/320 and attach rad tubing. That'd be the easiest/cheapest way.

That would do it, the CPU that is - again though, having used color coolants before, I will always go colored tubing, if I can find the right one, versus colored coolant. I always find once you start filling, the colors in coolant never quite match watch the picture says it will look like. Die is a bit better, as you can always add a bit more... But, Feser is a high quality one that I have used before myself.
