I've been doing a lot of reading and planning over the past week on a build and decided to go water cooling for my over clocking.
I plan to OC the CPU and GPU.
These are the parts to my computer build:
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz
ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 LGA 1155 Intel Z77
GIGABYTE GV-N680OC-2GD GeForce GTX 680 2GB
SeaSonic X750 Gold 750W Full Modular
COUGAR CF-V12HB Vortex (Fans I think will be good for rad, if wrong let me know)
Thermaltake Chaser MK-I Full Tower

(Link to case if needed)
Now to the water cooling parts I've picked out so far:
EK-Supremacy CPU Water Block - Acetal + EN (Nickel)
- Fitting Size 1/2" Barb for 1/2" ID tube
X-Flow Black Ice Pro II High Performance Radiator - Black
- Fitting Size 3/8" OD
Laing DDC-pump 12V DDC-1T
XSPC Premium Laing DDC Clear Acrylic Top - Version 3.0
XSPC Acrylic Dual 5.25” Split Bay Reservoir
- Nozzles No Nozzles
EK-FC680 GTX - Acetal + EN (Nickel) CSQ
- Fitting Size 1/2" Barb for 1/2" ID tube
Tubing and fittings I'm at a loss at.
I do know I want compression fittings but that's about it besides black.
And besides watching some youtube videos I don't know all that much about this.
I am reading guilds here so they are helping me.
