Hey guys, was wondering if these parts are compatible. More specifically the watercooling parts, because I know the other parts are compatible using PCPartpicker. Thanks in advance!

Part List:
1. Intel Core I5 4690k Quad Core Processor
2. Asus Z97-E ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
3. Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (DDR3 – 1866)
4. Samsung 840 Evo 125GB Solid State Hard Drive
5. Seagate Barracuda 2TB Mechanical Hard Drive
6. EVGA Geforce GTX 960 2GB Video Card
7. Fractal Design Define S Windowed Case
8. Corsair RM 650W Gold-Certified Power Supply
9. Asus DRW- 24b1st CD Writer and Reader

Custom Water Cooled Loop:
1. Pump – Swiftech MCP655
2. Reservoir – Swiftech MCP35X Reservoir
3. Tubing – Swiftech Vinyl TruFlex Tubing (Size Undecided)
4. Radiators – Swiftech MCRx20-XP Extreme Performance Radiator Series
5. CPU Water block – Swiftech Apogee XL
6. GPU Water block – Alphacool NexXxoS GPX Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 Waterblock + Backplate
7. Fittings – Swiftech Lok-Seal Compression Fittings

As well, what size tubes should I use if I want to cool both my GPU and CPU? if I do end up cooling both what is the size of radiators that I will need? thanks a lot!

 

NOTE: This is a project for school where I am supposed to build a custom water loop under a budget. Which is why i am custom watercooling to start with.

With the amount of money you are spending on water cooling parts you would be better off spending them on a better GPU and running it on air. You would have much better results then you would ever hope to achieve OCing a 960 on water.
 

Edit: didn't see note never mind!

Look up Singularity Computers on youtube and it has alot of information and anything you would ever need to know about water cooling
