Do these parts look good? Starting with single, will expand in future.

 

Ek full waterblock for GPU, copper.

Xspc flx uv red tubing 3/8. 5/8

Red Barrow compression fittings 6 of them, 3/8 5/8 again.

Ek D5 res/pump combo

Xspc 240 crossflow copper rad

Silver coil (antimicrobial)

Thermaltake static pressure ring fans

No CPU block within the loop? Overall that looks good but just remember that to use silver kill coils you must not have any nickel components within the loop as they can be borderline dis-similar metals within a loop environment.

Yeah I started with my gpu as I already had an aio on my cpu and am pushing my budget already. I will add it in later. I will double check but I don't believe there is any nickel thanks. If so do you recommend anything else?

That looks to be a good start, if you do add the CPU into the loop later on it would be a good idea to get more rad space or to initially go with a 360mm rad if given the room inside the case. Other than that you can put in some angled adapters to help tubing routing but that depends on the runs inside the case.

Unfortunately I don't have the room until my aio rad is gone (280) I can only fit the 240

That would be something to consider later on if you add more components into the loop.
