If you are going for a GPU only loop you may want to consider lookingat AIO loops the cost associated with just watercooling a GPU wouldn't be worth the time unless you were doing both a CPU and GPU or were incorporating the CPU into the loop later on. Also you would be best off getting a full cover waterblock if you were going to do custom watercooling.

Indeed.

 

You need to look for something to cool your VRAM and VRM as well.

None.

 

It's an AIO, you literally just connect the tubes to your current GPU block.  The pump/res is built into the top of the radiator.

 

(make sure the AIO is drained before the process of course)

I was just offering the most simple setup

 

If you wan't a fully custom loop know that the process will be more complicated.  Here are EK kits that are good for beginners. I'm not really trying to promote EK, but it's all that I have experience with.
