Hey Guys,
im thinking about doing a Water-cooling build for my PC i recently built and wanted someone with more wisdom then me (everyone on this forum) to look through and tell me if there's any incompatibilities or if anything is missing below.

im concerned that the Radiator wont be efficient enough to cool the Cpu and Gpu on the same loop once i start overclocking, if that's the case i can get a CoolerMaster 120 Seidon closed loop system

Gpu: EK-FC r9 290x Acetal-Nickel and EK-FC r9 290x backplate
Cpu: EK Supremacy Acetal-Nickel or CoolerMaster 120 Seidon
Radiator: Phobya Extreme 400mm Fan: Bitfenix Spectre Pro 200mm
Pump: AlphaCool
Fittings: Aqua Tuning 13mm 1/2' G1/4 x 10
Tubing: PrimoChill PrimoFlex Advanced LRT Tubing Black 1/2ID 3/4OD 3m
Reservoir: Alpha-cool Single-bay 5.25 inch drive bay rev 2
Thermal Paste: Arctic Cooling MX-4 x 2

im not to sure on the Pump/Res/Fittings/Tubing and need to make sure they'll work




My PC consists of (the important bits)
i5 4670k
Gtx780/R9 290x/Gtx780ti
(whichever is best price/performance when gtx780ti comes out)
Thermaltake Overseer case
corsair tx650v2 psu
8gb ddr3 1600mhz


Thank-you and look forward to your responses

 
Solution
this is what i use to cool a CPU and GPU







and the temps are ok on the video card plus it is clocked to 850Mhz, but still it is not great, i would need another radiator to do that.



like this rig it has two radiators cooling the two 580 video cards



and the temps are better as a result.

i have an example on how id hope it'd turn out, can you see any flaws? or if theres anything i need to change
cpu>gpu instead of gpu>cpu or Rad>Res>Pump instead of Rad>Pump>Res etc.
