Hi all!

I'm planning on splashing out and buying my dream rig soon, all the bells and whistles including watercooling. Here's a list of what I'll be buying:

Intel Core i7 5960x
Asus X99 Deluxe
32gb DDR4 Corsair Dominator Platinum 3000mhz (8 x 4gb)
3 x EVGA SC Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 4gb
2 x Corsair AX1200i PSU
500gb Samsung EVO
2 x 4tb Seagate SSHD
Corsair Obsidian Series 900D

I want to cool the GPU's and CPU, I don't think there's any waterblocks out for the motherboard as of this time but I'm not too bothered about that anyway.

I've been scouting around for waterblocks and so far I've found this for the CPU:

and this for the GPU's:

Your opinions on these choices?

Also, Would it be beneficial for me to hae the GPU's on a seperate loop to the CPU, or wouldn't it make much difference in the long run?

I also want to utilise the 900D's many rad mounts, and I was thinking of putting a 480 rad up top, a 240 in the front and a 140 at the rear. Is this overkill or acceptable? (I do plan on overclocking fyi)

Also, if anyone could advise as to good quality fittings, pump, resovoirs, etc. to use I would greatly appreciate it!
