I just finished a build on pcpart picker and was curious if it would work.  I'm not asking for a google sketchup of the water cooling loop, just some general info.

1)  I am nearly 100% sure, but just in case, is everything compatible, and i hate to use this word, but are there any bottlenecks.

2)  Is the tubing compatible with the compressions and all of the parts.  This is my first waatercooling loop.

3)  Is it ok to cross metals, i.e. acetal blocks and copper rads.

4)  Anything else you can think of

The monitor is temporary, i will go to a store to look at some monitors and decide which i like.  Also, I have a fractal design define r4 i will be using and a standard lg cd dvd read write 5.25 drive.

 

I can help with programming and hardware.

If you are gonna run 4x 980's you wont be able becaused the Asus Maximus VII hero only has

2 x PCIe 3.0 x16 

1 x PCIe 2.0 x16
3 x PCIe 2.0 x1
 
Which means 3 cards in the max.
 
(Im not familair with PCpartpicker, so it could be 2x 980's when it says (2X SLI), but i understood it like 2x 2x = 4x)
 
 
______

1) Yes, and no bottlenecks.

4. Mabye a CD player? For OS, or first drivers.

That naming makes it seem like there's 4 GPUs.

Also, I'd get a nicer quality PSU. Seasonic platinum if budget isn't an issue. Not a higher wattage though.

Specs are on my profile page
