Okay so recently i decided that i wanted to upgrade to my own custom water cooling as eventually i will be doing it. Now i am extremely unfamiliar with custom water cooling setups. I need to know what i need for a fm2+ socket cooling, but eventually will be changing to a 1150 socket so it need to be changable. I also need to know what i need for two gtx 760s. Now i need to know what are the other components i need and where can i buy them?? so in the end i need help from you guys finding the right components for my custom water cooling.

The things the custom water cooling will be cooling:

FM2+ socket cpu but the cpu block needs to be able to change to a LGA1150
Just one gpu block for a 760 atm

and then i need to know what else i need for the cooling to work and where i can buy it.

Thanks for any help i get, anything that will helps me please.

That would be fine. The water temp will very quickly equalize; in my loop for example the water coming out of 3 water blocks and the pump (it's warmest point) is about 2 degrees higher than after the rads, (its lowest point). In short, it makes no measurable difference.

I think complete instructions for someone new to water cooling is way beyond the scope of a message board. I suggest you look around at one of the many beginners guides to water cooling and then come back if you have any specific questions.
As for where to buy parts, performance pcs and frozen cpu are both great companies, depending on hwere you are. For the GPU blocks, EKWB makes one depending on the exact card; you probably won't find a block specifically designed for a 760 but the 670 blocks often work depending on the exact card. They can tell you for sure.

only one gpu at the moment. i was thinking to set it up like this. Have a pump/res combo , then have a tube leading to a cpu block then have the tubing from cpu block go to a 240mm radiator then tubing from the 240mm radiator go to the gpu, then finally tubing leading to either 120mm or 240mm depending on space i have then back to my res.

Does this seem ok. id prefer to have less radiators and just put in a 360mm radiator on the top. But just wondering wont the water from the gpu to the cpu be warm and effect the temperatures? Just wondering because the gpu water would be going through the res, pump, and cpu before reaching the radiator is that okay?
