I'm trying to water cool my PC and bought an nzxt source 210 to mod. I'm wondering if the parts I selected will fit. The parts are:

Radiators: alphacool nexXxos xt45 full copper dual 120mm
alphacool nexXxos xt45 single 120 full copper
Reservoir: Alphacool Lighttower AIO reservoir/pump combo
Pump: Phobya DC12-400 12v water-cooling pump
CPU block: Bitspower summit EF CPU liquid cooling block
GPU block: 2x EK geforce gtx 660 liquid cooling block Nickel
Tubing: Not sure Would appreciate some suggestions
Fittings: going with compression fittings but not sure how
many to buy.
Fans: Not sure of good fans with blue leds that are silent
Thermal Paste: not quite sure what to get
Not sure if I'm missing something

The system in trying to cool is an i5 4670k @4.2ghz, MSI z87 g55, 2x pny gtx 660s (will upgrade to 870s when they come ot), 8gb ram, WD green 1tb, and a 650w nzxt hale 82 psu (will upgrade to 750w rm series psu when I get 870s). All parts will go inside the nzxt Source 210.

The Source 210 is not designed for a water cooling system , as there isn't really anywhere in the case capable of housing anything more than a single closed loop CPU cooler. Even with its dual 140mm roof mounts, there's too little space between the roof and your motherboard to mount a radiator with fans.

I figured as much for the top but I'm willing to mod the case to fit the water cooling In the front if at all possible (removing 5 1/4 inch bays and most of everything except the front i/o).
