Hi guys i am new to water cooling i have so far used a deepcool captain 120.

Now i recently got the chance to buy a 360mm radiator for 50usd on a sale(mrp 110usd)

1)can i remove the 120mm rad from deepcool captain and replace it?

2)What kind of pipe/tube and fittings i need for liquid cooling and where do i find them computer shops have NO IDEA about them here in india

3)I saw an adapter to convert cpu cooler into hdd/ram cooler,is it even WORTH liquid cooling?
 
Ahh we meet again Robinwing :D Robin is part right, you will ruin the AIO coolers but you can replace the radiator. You would have to buy a few more parts.

You will need G1/4" thread with 1/4" barb fittings and clamps
and a Reservoir since you no longer have a closed loop system

I did this once with a corsair unit, its a little odd but it does work.

had an itx board inside a nintendo case shell, used the corsair pump hooked up to a mico dual 80mm radiator. Used a T line to fill the loop.

Wow faalin, i didn't actually know you could (well i mean anything is possible with modding), That sounds like a pretty cool mod. Sorry about that other thread haha I think one of the reviews for that board said that it could handle 5820k sli 16x/16x, which explains it. Thanks for clearing it up though.
