Custom water cooling for AMD build
Was thinking about putting a custom loop in my pc for a while now but due to more hours in work its looking like an actual possibility! Only problem is I have no idea where to begin. Pretty daunting when I think about all the connections, tubing, pumps and rads.
Was wondering if maybe somebody in the know could help out.

CPU: FX-8320
GPU: MSI r9 280x 3g Gaming Edition
Case: Nanoxia Deep Silence One

For your first custom loop, a kit is probably a good idea. It includes everything.

Both Alphacool and EK make some decent kits.

Check Jayz 2 Cents on YouTube for reviews of both.

Get an extra bottle of coolant and remember to flush your radiator thoroughlly, finishing with a couple distilled water flushes.


I had a look at those vids earlier and went about looking at the kits but its hard to find a block for my GPU, I know a 7970 block should work but then I'd have to go about getting another rad (at least 120mm I think) and fittings for that also.
