So I have recently been interested in creating a water-cooling loop for my system, before I begin here are my specs.

 

Hardware

 

CPU: i7 4790k @ Stock (Stock Cooler)

Motherboard: GIGABYTE Z97X SLI UD3H

GPU: 2 x XFX R9 280X 3GB

RAM: GSKILL 8GB RipJaws Gaming Ram

Case: NZXT H440 White

 

I have been running the 4790k at stock for a while and obviously not just for aesthetics but as well as performance why not increase it if the option is available.

 

I would only like a loop that cools my CPU, if there is any reservoir and pump combos that are under the price of around $100 that are great quality and YOU would personally recommend i'd prefer that really.

 

If you guys can recommend any parts that are listed below for cheap prices, please do :)

 

Cooling

 

Radiator (240mm):

Reservoir & Pump Combo:

Acrylic Tubing:

CPU Block:

Good Fans (preferably white):

Liquid Coolant (white): 

 

Thanks :)

Not sure if you would be able to do it for $100 but I would recommend looking at some of EK's stuff. They sell pretty much everything you would need for making a water cooling loop.

 

I would also recommend PETG tubing instead of acrylic since it doesn't crack.

CPU: 6600K @ 4.6Ghz | COOLER: H100i GTX | MOBO: Asus Z170 AR | GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti Hybrid | RAM: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16GB | 

CASE: Corsair 760T | PSU: Corsair RM750x | STORAGE: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB & Seagate 2TB | KEYBOARD: K70 RGB | MOUSE: Deathadder Elite

Recommend any?

The problem is an expandable pump is quite expensive ;

you could get a cheaper pump but then you would loose the ability to cool my gpu later down the line .

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.
