Hey, first time build with watercooling.

If i buy any old watercooler for my cpu, could it be later extended to cool the gpu and other components? or do I need to buy a specific type of watercooling setup for the future adding of waterblocks?

Also if I plan to eventually cool the gpu, does the manufacturing brand matter e.g. sapphire, powercolor, msi?

Uh, what water cooler? Because if it is a closed-loop cooler, you'd have a hard time with modding it.

And the brand sorta matters. What matters is the PCB. There are reference blocks for reference PCBs and there are some custom blocks for custom PCBs.
