Default What to buy?

I am still planning myself a new PC, I wanted to use Air(Thermaltae IFX-14) But I see water is much more efficient, I read what to do etc on a guide at Tomshardware.com. I learned that I needed: A resorvoir, pump, cables, CPU block and radiator. But, I have no idea what parts to get, can anyone please help my out thru a few suggestions?

Thanks,

I would suggest one of Petra's custom kits from here...
www.petrastechshop.com
Even if what you want is not in stock you can always get the components from a mix of vendors. The parts list is complete......"just add water" distilled that is

I'd use aback plate on either one...Dtek FuZion Intel 775 Pro-Mount set

Res..DD 5 1/4" Bay Reservoir.Or use a t-line....

Pump...D-5

Rad...240 for just a cpu....360 for cpu and gpu.... GTX360

Fans...86cfm Pana

Tubing...Use this on 1/2" barbs...7/16x5/8".This if you want full 1/2x3/4"...1/2x3/4"

Mix this with 40 or so ounces of distilled..Pentosin..Add a couple of drops of this for a biocide....PT Nuke

Take your time and do a little parts research now and find whats best for you...It may save you a couple of $$$...
