So, I'm doing my first Hard Line watercooling loop between a CPU and a GPU (1080 Strix) however I'm getting a this kit along with this GPU Block however I'm going to have to buy extra fittings and stuff. Which parts am I going to need to ensure this is fully working (EK parts please!)

I don't think rubber tubes count as a hard line water cooling solution.

I forgot to say, I'm not using the tubes! I'm getting EK acrylics

You need new fittings for hardline but other then that a heat gun if you are bending or just a lot of right angle fittings

What size fittings though, I assume it's the same as the tubing?
