@ScrappyZeDog, if i were you i would stay away from any aluminum components unless you have no future plans to implement any other components because aluminium will just take a dump in your lunch if you add any other metals like copper/brass/whatever else to the loop.

 

You should look into like a XSPC kit with a D5 if you have the funds for it and if not then get a good NZXT Kraken x62/52.

I got EK's P series kit. I would recommend this for cooling your processor. https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-kit-p240 
It was the kit I used for my first custom loop, and I really thought it was an awesome kit. Combined with due research, the kit wasn't all that hard to install to be entirely honest.
