Default Wanting to go liquid, need guidance on list.

These are the things I selected, am I missing anything?

I am trying to make all of this internal, any guidance and tips on where to put the radiator? Plenty of room in case cause of cable management :F

I realized the tubing was only by the foot, need some ideas on that as well, looking to go all 1/2" on everything.

I'd have to recommend a DDC w/ a Petra's top over the D5 you have listed... well worth the very miniscule difference in price. Note the large difference in head pressure between the two.

Those smart coils won't work for you, either.. thay show as for 1/2" OD tubing, while the Tygon you have listed is 3/4"

I always read get more tubing than you know you need. I would 10 or 20 feet just be sure, and, like the people above said hose clamps.

i disagree the vario pump is of very high quality and MORE than suits his situation. i do agree on those smart coils though, honestly they aren't even needed, that diameter clear tubing bends fairly easy and will not kink up. for your cpu loop get like 5 feet just incase you cut something wrong or whatnot. i got 10' for my loop, but then again i have more than my cpu cooled too

I highly disagree. With soft tubing you are FAR better off with the Reusable Plastic ones, as the metal ones are A. sometimes a pain to get tightened on due to placement in a PC, and B. are far more likely to cut and damage the tubing due to sharp edges... not to mention cutting your fingers on one (been there, done that).

For your tubing, I'd suggest this PrimoFlex 1/2" ID - 3/4" OD tubing. I've used it ona few rigs now, and never had any problems.. plus is a fair bit cheaper per foot than the Tygon you listed. There well may be a few places selling that PrimoFlex even cheaper than $2 a ft. but I'm not certain who right now.

I'd go atleast a 240 rad, so if you eventually add a gpu to the loop or something.

Masterkleer tubing is cheaper and I'm sure just as good.
