Could you state a budget as the range of money that can be spent is huge...
I only cooled my CPU and GPU but spent around £550 - £600 ($887 CAD)

I agree that saving some dough on used parts can be a good plan.Originally Posted by bluebunny
You can get the tubing at a local hardware store for pennies on the dollar and you can buy used like a pump and rad and get some good deals as there a lot of water coolers selling there stuff all the time on this forum. When i got into water cooling 3 years ago I got everything for $150. I would recommend a triple rad with that setup if you plan on cooling a cpu and gpu as they get really hot. As for coolant you can just get distilled water from the store for like $1 a gallon. You would need a pump, tubing, rad, and 2 blocks. Shouldnt cost over $300 for those parts new and even less if they are used. I put a quick list together which was a mcp655 pump, swifttech rad 320 qp, and a xspc block for $190. And then you factor in about $10 for tubing , $1 for the water and $100 for the gpu block you chose and it comes out to $301 + $35 for shipping.. I used performance pc for the pricing
