What do you plan on cooling? Cpu? GFX? That should be a good start, but it all depends on what you are planning to cool. I got my first set-up used on here cheap. If you piece it together, you can find some good deals. IMO, the only things worth coolling are CPU and GFX cards. If you can, try to run 2 separate loops.
$300-350 for water cooling?

7/16" on 1/2" barbs makes a good seal. (even without any kind of clamps) You can use screw clamps or zip-ties to ensure a good seal if you're worried.

I have 1/2 barbs tubing 7/16 I have no leaks so for. With the tubing and barbs you will have a tight seal.
If you want it silent get a fan controller
