PC Specs:

i7 4790k

ASUS Maximus VII Hero

Corsair 900D 

GTX 980

16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum

 

Watercooling Components:

CPU Block: Koolance 380i

GPU Block: Koolance NX980 Full Coverage

Radiators: x2 Phoyba G-Changer 480mm Version 2

Pump: Swiftech MCP655

Reservoir: FrozenQ LF Reaction 250mm or EK MultiOption 400m (help me chose, won't the FrozenQ be a bit tiny in a 900d?)

Fittings: Primochill Silver Compression Fittings

Tubing: Primochill PrimoFlex Advanced in Red

Fans: x8 SP120 Quiet Edition

 

What's good and what should I change? For the coolant I'm using normal distilled water from the grocery store.

Get the EK reservoir. Why not bitspower black compression fittings? They look great with that theme of yours.

I thought you wanted a new build. My bad.

Just going to let you know that bitspower are the best brand for fittings. But whatever.

 

If you want silence, don't get those fans. Super loud IMO.

I don't trust those vids. They're clean and HD and everyone assumes they're perfect but look at how much background noise he has when he turns off the fan at the end...

 

How can you possibly get a realistic view of the noise levels like that? Martin's 120mm fan comparisons are the best out there.
