So I will be putting down a bunch of links of items that I will be getting very soon to put into my computer. It is mostly liquid cooling mixed with a little aesthetic enhancing items. I don't really know much about liquid cooling but I really want to get into it so i chose these things for my build.

http://www.aquatuning.us/water-cooling/water-additives/ready-to-use/9216/aquacomputer-double-protect-ultra-rot-1000ml---------- getting two liters for extra use

http://www.performance-pcs.com/modmytoys-3-pin-power-distribution-pcb-3-way-block.html------------- getting two for each three fans I have

So any ideas? any things you would change? Could I have made this easier on you guys rather than shooting all these links at you guys? Find out next time on the next episode of "How Much Stupider can I Get?"

A few pointers :

 

1- Don't buy a preselected kit, combine one yourself

2- Don't buy a premade cooling liquid, make one yourself with distilled water, dye and biocide/anti corrosion additive. Make sure to check the manufacturer's specifications for liquid, additive and tubing compatibility.

3- Don't go for NF-A14 fans for radiator use. They're optimized for airflow and not static pressure.

4- We can not help you chose fittings and radiator if we don't have any idea of the components you're cooling and the case you're working in.

5- First, choose your core watercooling components (waterblocks, reservoir, pump, radiators), then plan your loop path, THEN choose fittings with space restrictions in mind.

6- Plan for loop filling and draining.

Noctuas are just for the case the nbeloops are for the rad and I will do a different post later today then with all the parts I have and I will have a new list of individual water cooling pieces and liquids thanks

What is wrong with the premixed coolant?

first shipping water is pretty dumb and secondly you have no control over what they put in there. those formulars arent perfect either. just ask jay why his skunkworks loop is going dark for the x time. id go for distilled water and some additive.
