Alright first off let me say that I will only have a watercooling setup in this case for about a month, I will upgrade to the CaseLabs S5 when the release it (hopefull next month). Then I will more than likely add more radiators

It will go:

Pump - 7970 Waterblock - 3770k Waterblock - 240 Radiator - Radiator Mounted Reservoir - Back to the pump

1000

Tell me what you think and below you can find the list of parts im going to use:

Bitspower 120mm Reserboir Mount[/url=http://www.frozencpu.com/products/14355/ex-rad-318/Bitspower_120mm_Water_Tank_Mount_Panel_BP-120WTMP-BK.html?id=shT2wv7t&mv_pc=484]

As far as fittings go I was planning to use a 45 degree connecting the Pump and 7970 WaterBlock, 7970 WaterBlock to the CPU WaterBlock, then a 45 off of the CPU WaterBlock into a regular compression on the Radiator, 90 off of the radiator into a regular compression on the Reservoir, and regular compressions connecting the reservour and the pump.

All fittings would be Bitspower compressions.

What do you guys think? Im most worried about the fittings because really its just a good amount of guess work and this is my first water cooling setup so some experianced people's thoughts would be nice :thumb: Thanks for any feedback

Sorry, I don't have time to read the whole thread but one 240 as you have suggested is not enough for a 3770k and a 7970.

As i said I would only have this setup for about a month before I upgrade to a caselabs case. Temps still wouldnt be terrible with a 80mm thick radiator though imo. This thread is more for some tips on fittings and what angle's I should get for my fittings at each area. I think what I listed would work out fairly well but I would like to get a second opinion.
