Help First Water Cooling PC

[Keith Strout]

Hello all,

I am building my first water cooling pc and could use some help picking out the components.

What I'm cooling
Intel i5 2500k cpu - socket 1155
2 Nvidia EVGA GeForce GTX 670 - SLI

I have the basic fundamentals down but I don't know exactly which parts I need specifically.

I'm going the route of external cooling just to be on the safe side that I buy a bunch of stuff and it doesn't fit inside.

What I need:
1 CPU Water Block & Accessories
2 GPU Water Blocks & Accessories
Radiator - Quad Fan
Pump
Reservoir
Tubing and Fittings - 1/2in and/or 3/8in
Coolant - with anti-corrosive and anti-conductive properties
Thermal Paste

I believe that's all I need.

Your input would be much appreciated.

evrey thing should fit but that quad radiator i would recommend two 120mm radiator so you can mount them in the case or your system may be more hot. but it wont be as hard to mount that radiator but with your case you can mount it right on the top (inside) with easyly but remember it will be hotter so its up to you.

How do you connect two separate radiators together? I mean I kinda think I already know. Just have one radiator then connect it to the next one with tubes and fittings. Least that's how Id do it. Is it as simple as that?
