Default Taking the plunge

Finally decided to go water cooling and need some opinions/ideas.comments.

What I have:
- Swiftech rad
- Danger Den reservoir
- 5/8" OD tubing, 6'
- MCP655 Pump

What I need:
- D-Tek Fuzion V2
- 1/2" barbs
- Orange "smart coil" coils
- coolant/dye/distilled water

My setup is going to be all black everything, with just orange coolant and orange SmartCoil coils. Sounds good to me.

Any suggestions or changes to this lineup?

Thanks!

I was thinking of having black coolant and orange wrapped around it like marcus has in his triple loop enigma TJ07 project

Although I don't believe marcus had black coolant with it..
