Smile First W/C Build

I just ordered my watercooling parts from NCIX yesterday and I wanted to see what you guys think of it. It is my first setup and I used all the support from this forum I could get.

Heat Exchanger: Swiftech MCR320 Quiet Power Triple 120MM Water Cooling Radiator Black G1/4 Threaded
Barbs: Danger Den G1/4 to 1/2IN High Flow Barb Chrome Fittings (2 Pack)
Fans: Scythe Ultra Kaze 120MM High Static Pressure Silent Fan 38MM 3000 RPM 133.6CFM 45.9DBA x3

CPU Block: D-TEK Customs Fuzion V2 CPU WaterBlock S478/LGA775/S939/AM2/S754 1/2IN Barbs

Reservoir: Swiftech MCRES-MICRO Clear HI-FLOW Water Cooling Reservoir 3/8 IN & 1/2IN Barb Fittings

Tubing: Swiftech 7/16IN ID Vinyl Tubing 10 Feet x2
Coils: Swiftech Smartcoils 625 Blue x2

Pump: Swiftech MCP655 12V Industrial Water Cooling Pump 1/2IN Barbs

It cost me about 300 with tax, shipping and insurance and now I have the perfect computer to play RUNESCAPE! Jokes. But please state your opinions and what I could have done better. I can still return stuff to NCIX for free if the the parts are really that bad. Also should I get the quad insert for my D-Tek Fusion v2 or is what I have fine to cool a Quad Core? Well I'm not buying it anyways. Also, my Dad owns a HVAC company and is getting me Ethylene Glycol (pure) and deionized water for my coolent and I need to know the mixing ratio for it to be used as my computer coolent. Thanks!

Alright, first off, nice set up. The coils aren't VERY necessary. The DD barbs are good but the D-Tek barbs are better and the DangerDen Fat Boy barbs are best. The tubing sounds alright, but my old Swiftech tubing got all white and cloudy. You should go for Masterkleer tubing, it is VERY cheap (even cheaper than the tubing you bought) and I gurantee it is better than the Swiftech tubing your getting. Make sure you use Push-Pull setup on the radiator and if possible I recommend getting yourself some shrouds. Tell us what you are going to put in as the coolant. I recommend distilled water with 2 drops of Petra Tech's PT_Nuke. If you want some color and UV effect then add Pentosin G11. Make sure you post pics! Good luck!

Edit: Make sure you get some zip ties or clamps for the tubing and go pick up some Teflon tape from somewhere (probably under $3), it will prevent leaks and will save your life.
