Hi all so im looking to do my first custom watercooling project. Im pretty new to the whole custom loop thing so would like some advice if possible and maybe a partslist?

 

System/Case:

InWin 303 case

Asrock B150M Mobo

i3 6100

No gpu in the loop right now

 

things that it will need to be able to do:

1. Be easy to change the motherboard/cpu as right now it will be going in a i3 system but will be upgrading that in the future.

2. Big is good, im looking for the fatest tubing/rads i can use. Not hard tubes.

3. Must have 2 maybe 3 rads - 2x360mm and 1x120mm maybe

4. Preferably will bolt into the case aka no drilling

5. Parts from this website https://www.pbtech.co.nz

 

can get pics of it if needed

Main system:

i7 6700k @4.8ghz 1.45v

ROG Maximus Hero VIII

Gigabyte G1 980ti Sli @1500 ghz

Samsung 950 pro 512gb

16gb G.Skill Ripjawz V @3400mhz 

Corsair H115i 280mm AIO

Corsair 400c Case

Backup/Older/Toys:

Asrock B150M Pro4/Hyper

Intel 750 series 400gb

Get a better processor first mate, waste of money making a custom loop for a 6100.

Put the loop into your main machine?

How are you overclocking a locked chip.
