    The blocks are a decent choice.

    The pump you're looking at comes with connectors which do not fit 1/2" tubing however (and the Aquastream electronics can apparently be a bit temperamental for a beginner). In your case I'd consider the Laing D5 pump --it is a powerful pump but you can adjust its speed (and noise) easily and it runs on 12V.

    The radiator, too, does not have 1/2" fittings. Consider a Black Ice Xtreme II or something similar instead.

    For tubing consider Clearflex, or the daddy of tubing: Tygon R-3603. Go for the thick-walled version (3mm thickness) rather than the thin-walled version (1.5mm thickness).

    I'm sure that the owner of Sharka would find that extremely amusing. So how did you come to this revelation? :eyebrow:

    If you go over to the [H]ardForum AC thread and go back about to February and read forward it should be pretty clear that I have no interest in Sharka Corp. I don't get any free stuff, pay the same prices as any other good customer, and otherwise have no vested interest in them. I find that a company who is willing to go the extra length to make a customer happy is a rare find. So I have no problem suggesting that people go there. :clap:

    If you don't believe what I'm saying then I suggest you ask R1ckCa1n at the [H]ardForum because he knows both me and the people at Sharka. He also would be quite amused as well. Or you could also ask Franz at IT-Trade. Tell you what, next time I chat with Franz I will tell him he can say anything about me that he wants to. :thumb:

    The reason I know a great deal about that company in regards to AC goods is that I was the person that persuaded them into stocking the line, did some of the footwork to make it happen, and recommended to them what might be good things to stock. I think it was a good deal on my part because everyone in the USA (including me!) now has a local supply of A-C goods that they can normally get off the shelf.

    Yes, thank you for that.
    I told you, and Nexxo did, stop double posting.
    It doesn't get you anywhere, extreme cooling is visiting by myself and others very often so, wait. :eyebrow:

    venomz, if you order from two different shops, make sue to calculate in the postage costs. It may possibly be cheaper to buy everything from DangerDen and only pay for postage once, even if the rad is more expensive, then to buy from seperate shops and pay postage twice. ;)

    The GPU cooler you chose will not work well with 1/2" tubing. Consider the DangerDen ones.

    (and use the EDIT button a bit more in your project log, OK? ;) )
