I am doing a simple loop for my cpu for a school project for physics. I need to be able to change pump speed and radiators easily because that is what I am testing. Here is my parts list:

Block: EK-Supremacy MX CPU

Radiators: ALPHACOOL NEXXXOS ST30 (one 240mm and one 120mm) 

Pump/Res: EK-XRES 140 DDC 3.2 PWM

Fittings: Need help with this one but they need to be compression so I can reuse the tubing after I switch out radiators

Tubing:  PrimoFlex Advanced LRT 

Fans: I have some Gentle Typhoons that I am going to use

 

My cpu is an i5 3570k and my case is a Corsair 350D

 

Thanks

looks like a good loop however is a bit overkill for a core i5

well you will need some QDCs( quick disconnects) atleast 6 QDC fittings other than that just use any compressions that fit the look you are going for.

 

 

for the QDCs you need 1 before the rad and 1 after

 

and then 2 extra ends per rad

How much easier would the QDC make switching radiators as I will only be doing 3 combos, the 120, the 240 and the 120 +240
