Would like to get into water cooling...

[Lazmarr]

So I would like to start a water cooled build... but i have no idea where to start. Eventually I would like to go hard line.

What I'm looking for now is to start with the CPU but later expand to my GPU and create a custom loop.

Not sure of all the items I am going to need like fittings resevoirs etc

start by doing research and watching build logs/tutorials

If you have no idea where to start you are probably better of buying an AIO .

That's like telling a building noob to buy a prebuilt. We all have to start somewhere  

and that somewhere is usually hours, upon hours, upon hours of research....

 Ok so you are going to need a reservoir, radiator, pump , waterblocks. Each one has minimum of 2 fittings . you can order parts on ekwb.com

You're case can support 3 x 120mm on top so defently take advantage of that. You might want to put one in bottom or pivot as well.

Full cover gpu blocks dosen't exist for you're gpu. Full cover means it cool more units and vram not just the processor. You can use vga universal but i wouldent recommend it.

Sorry for the late reply guys, have been completing  an assignment

I'm just wanting to start with cooling my CPU, but wanted to have an open loop for possible future upgrades rather than buying a closed loop AIO.

What price would I be looking at, including fittings, pump, block, resevoir etc, for just cooling my CPU?

For just a CPU loop you could get started with a kit say from EKWB or an expandable AIO, you are looking at around a starting price of $300 for a proper CPU loop. I suggest the kits from EKWB they are a good base to start off on and pretty good value:
