As said the 1500X doesn't throw out a lot of heat so a custom loop isn't exactly worth the extra work when an AIO can easily handle it. If you do want to install a loop that would work but you require a proper biocide or compatible fluid all you have is dye, I would recommend to get a premix such as Mayhems X1 or EKWB Cryofuel.

Had a look through here are some comments

 

You only have 6 fittings but I counted 3 components (rad, res, CPU block, pump) meaning you need at least 2 more fittings

 

I would recommend a D5 pump or at least a DDC over the spc pump

 

You need at least 2 dual rotary male to male fittings to connect the t splitter to your loop and the ball valve to the splitter. you will also need a stop plug for the ball valve.

 

Get a premix or concentrate. since it looks like you're after blue, consider something like the EK CryoFuel navy blue.
