Im building a PC ( you can find the parts here: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/sx8Gcc ) and I'm wondering if any one can give me help to find parts for a custom water loop as its my first build. I would like it to cool the CPU and GPU, I'm also looking for a pastel colour and any other things I may need to put in the water eg, to clean keep it clean and things like that. If it can be kept around £300 or lower, I may be willing to spend more if the system I like the system, thanks.

In all honesty, there is very little need to water cool your build, you will be fine with your current build without it. Plus as its your first build, I HIGHLY ADVISE NOT TO DO A CUSTOM LOOP  as many things can go wrong and kill your pc. Its better to leave it till later as its very hard and complicated and will be done better later on

You dont need to use a liquid cooler on the cpu as its not a K series, the one that it comes with will be fine

Yeah I know but I might buy an I7 or something a bit higher end and I was wanting the cooling as it looks really good

Are you planning to do editing or anything because splashing out for the i7 is silly, go for the i5-6600 or even the k series version if you want but honestly mate dont go and waste your cash. The i7 Is great if you utilise it, ( best used in editing video and things as such ). As for getting water cooling because it looks good, go for an AIO they look great and they are safer but only get one if you get the k series cpu otherwise its little worth and your wasting your cash :)

 

what looks even better is to have leds in the build, maybe the nzxt hue+

No problem dude, ive just built mine too, and I love the thing, but whats even better is to leave some things like that for the future, makes it even more fun and feel worth even more !

 

LEDS ARE AMAZING BTW! love the nzxt hue+ so slap one of them in there, worth every buck i paid for it and looks (*foams at mouth*)

I'm trying to get into Youtube commentary and Twitch streaming so I will be editing videos which is why I'm trying to decide whether or not to upgrade.

 

ahh in that case an i7 would benefit you greatly, go for the i7-6700, I dont think youll need to overclock its fast enough

If you want to go for a very "showy" build it might be adviseable to get a Swiftech H220

You can change the tubing later on and its one of the most Sexy AIO Coolers.
