Most people start with cooling their CPU. Since you're doing a custom loop, you might want to cool your GPU as well. You will need a water block for each component you want to cool. You will also need a reservoir, pump, and radiator. All these depend on what you want to focus on, performance or quietness. You will also need tubing to carry the coolant and fittings to secure the tubing to each component (usually 2 fittings per component, in and out).

I can't really say much else other than list the components I used on mine.

Alphacool single bay reservoir
Primochill 3/8ID 5/8OD orange tubing
EK black compression fittings
DDC pump with EK performance plexi top
EK coolstream PE high fin count 240mm radiator (with 4 blade master fans in push-pull)
EK Supremacy universal CPU block
EK VGA Supremacy universal GPU block
