Hi guys,

I'm upgrading my pc to 6th generation . I want to water-cool my cpu and gpu at same time. I think its called combined loop :(

build :
Asus Maximus VIII Extreme Intel LGA1151 Socket Motherboard
Corsair CMD32GX4M4B3200C16 Dominator Platinum Series 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4 3200 MHz C16 XMP 2.0 High Performance Desktop Memory Kit - Black
Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti Poseidon Platinum Graphics Card (6 GB, GDDR5, PCI Express 3.0, 3 x Display Port, HDMI 2.0, DVI-I, 384-Bit)
EVGA Gold 1300 PSU


I got the below components for water cooling

Swiftech MCP655-B Liquid cooling system pump
XSPC Photon 270 Tube Glass Cylinder Reservoir
Swiftech MCR420-XP eXtreme Performance Radiator
XSPC FLX Tubing 3/8" ID, 5/8" OD, Clear
XSPC ECX Ultra Concentrate Coolant, Green UV
Silver Coils - Antimicrobial .999 Fine Silver Strip
Petra's Tech Nuke PHN Concentrated Biocide (10mL)
XSPC G1/4" to (13mm) 1/2" Barb Fitting - Black Chrome Finish - 4 pack

I just pick the above items randomly. Please let me know if im missing something. I cannot figure the Fittings.

Sorry for my bad english. Please suggest. Thanks in advance :)

You purchased a watercooling loop with random components? That might be kind of an expensive mistake.

XSPC ECX Ultra Concentrate Coolant, Green UV
Silver Coils - Antimicrobial .999 Fine Silver Strip
Petra's Tech Nuke PHN Concentrated Biocide (10mL)

You really only need the PT Nuke of these. Use regular distilled water as your 'coolant'.

You also do not have a CPU and GPU water block listed.

Please read through the watercooling sticky listed below in my signature, perhaps that might help.

First I would say you need to check out jaystwocents youtube. He has almost everything you need to know about water cooling. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&rct=j&q=youtube%20jayztwocents%2C%206700k&ved=0ahUKEwiV6IKg__TKAhXF7yYKHUeTDlMQtwIIGjAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DR8v9CpUK2K8&usg=AFQjCNHk44Tlz0HR5mLSyEf-skcSId4eIA&sig2=kB4OPc46_LdkVfiY7vo3pw

just one of many water cooling blocks out there, you are looking for one that is 1150 or 1151 compatible most are or almost all have kits they come with for most sockets I do see some that are only AMD or only intel 1155, 1156, 2011 socket, just make sure it is socket 1150 or 1151 compatible you will be fine, some might say 775 that too will be ok, I know they are just about the same but you will be safe looking for either 1150 or 1151 socket I picked this one because it was xspc I hope this help you out, let us know how it is going, also first build I would mock setup put it together remove and run the system for a couple of days out of the system sitting om paper towels to check for leaks ect. All well after a day or two, go ahead and install, just my advice. Good luck
