Hey guys I have been browsing around and have finally figured out a set up for my custom loop, the thing is I have the parts I want in mind but I keep reading different inputs on required tubing and compression fitting sizes required. Some insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

Obviously with the T-virus style reservoir you've chosen your setup is going to be about looks so lets start with the pump.

The pump you chose has fixed inlet and outlet for 1/2" ID tubing, the link below is the same 655 pump with threaded G1/4 fitting threads.

Fitting wise you need to match the fitting sizing to the tubing you choose to run.

Meaning the I/D Inside Diameter and O/D Outside Diameter of the tubing has to match the compression fittings sizing.

The pump, reservoir, radiator, and GPU and CPU blocks are all pre-threaded to accept the G1/4 O-ring threaded fittings, you just need to pin down the tubing sizing...

The pump, reservoir, radiator, and GPU and CPU blocks are all pre-threaded to accept the G1/4 O-ring threaded fittings, you just need to pin down the tubing sizing you'll be using.

Example: If you chose tubing that was 1/2" ID and 5/8" OD you would need G1/4 fittings that are compression sized for 1/2" ID and 5/8" OD tubing, the ID and OD are critical in getting a true compression fitting seal.

Hope that helps you?
