Building my first custom loop

Go to solution Solved by Mick Naughty,

Looks good so far. I would get a 280 rad. Also need actual fittings of some kind to attach the hoses. Recommend compression if you can afford it now but ive used plenty of barbed fittings with zipties.

I'm building a custom loop for my PC and wanna me sure these parts will all work together and in the NZXT H200I case.

It will also have a gpu water block for my evga 980ti SC

If you really want/need the specs of my pc they are on my profile.

Should I include some sort of bleed valve?

To save yourself headache down the road, yes.

I finally put some in my rigs after doing this over a year. Always make a mess without one.

how would I include that into this setup? 

 

A "T" fitting. A male to male adapter and the drain valve itself. Somewhere at the lowest point where if could drain the most fluid.
