Hey guys, I hope you're all having a good day or evening (wherever you guys may be)

 

I had a question about getting a liquid cooling build going. I have currently a Corsiar H100i V2 for my CPU.

 

I currently have a Asus z79 Pro Motherboard 

CPU: Intel 4970K

RAM: G. Skill TridenX Series 32GB 240-Pin DDR3 2400

Graphics: GTX 970

 

I am looking to upgrade my power supply from 850 to 1000W or 1200W and the Graphics card to the new Asus ROG 1080 Strix and I would like to get a good looking Liquid cooling build once I also get the Cooler master Maker 5 Case.

 

I don't want to go so overboard but I would like to make it look decent. Could you guys make any suggestions for me? I would really appreciate it.

 

" Thanks guys, keep building stuff "

First off... you left off morning :P it is 3am here after all sitting behind my work desk.

 

Why would you bump your PSU from 850 up? That is way more than enough. For liquid cooling, it does get quite expensive fairly quickly for doing a custom loop. You want to look at doing a prebuild kit from EK.
