Attached is a pdf of the parts i'm planning on getting and I just wanted someone that knows what they're doing to take a quick look and just make sure everything there fits together. Mainly the fittings. Thanks!

only things I see missing are rotary fittings (helps in tight spots), fans? and pretty important, a drain

It looks like you are short on fittings you want to have two fittings per component and you only have 7 currently. Overall though everything looks great, as said a drain would be good for a hardline loop.

I'm not a fan of integrated Pump/Reservoir with small to medium size reservoirs (JMO). I bought one to try and found that it wasn't giving the coolant enough time for the air bubbles to expel themselves. Even after hours of burping the loop, micro bubbles could be seen. I took it apart and stuck a EK-RES X3 250 reservoir on it and everything was golden. One item I'm a proponent of is a flow sensor. A lot of the new MB's out can be programed to recognize the absents of the flow signal and shut your computer down.

You'll definitely need a drain valve and almost certainly some 90 degree fittings. I also wouldn't personally run a CPU+GPU off a single 360 rad if you value silence. Fans will need to be running at quite high RPM to keep your temps good. What case do you have? I presume you do have an X99 CPU as that block is specifically for it.

I have a corsair 570x case. The crystal series one. Also have an x99 cpu. Good call I think I might add another rad on the top.

Yeah definitely add another rad if you can, no reason not to.

When looking into doing a drain or fill port, consider looking into Valve fittings.

Combine as necessary with T-connectors and you'll have a spot in the loop that you can quickly open and close to let stuff in or out as you see fit.
