Hey Everyone,
I am very interested in doing liquid cooling for the first time, and I wanted some suggestions on what to do, what to buy, etc.

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300
MEMORY: Patriot Viper 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066
VCARD: 2X - EVGA 9800GTX SLI
CASE: COSMOS S

I am interested in cooling my CPU, and both GPU’s. This is what I narrowed down to on getting.

Swiftech MCR320
Swiftech MCP655-B™
Swiftech Apogee™ GTZ
Swiftech MCW60 x2
XSPC 5.25" Bay Reservoir - Black (not to sure on the reservoir)

I wanted to go with 3/8 tubing, and use compression fittings. Do I need any special fittings for the items above? I want to make sure I get everything on one order. If you have any other suggestions that would be great!

You'll want 1/2" tubing with GPU/CPU cooling
