Plus if you've got that kind of cash sitting around, you probably aren't THAT worried about making a mistake when creating the loops and everything else.
Man...this really makes me want to try my hand at a real water cooled pc rather then my AIO :/ but I don't wanna drop the $500-600 on all the parts to cool my 4790k and my 1070 :/ they cool enough as is when under load to where I really don't know how much cooler I would get.
Ugh...I still want to try making a custom loop, maybe this coming xmas or something I'll finally throw the gauntlet at it.

You could just make a GPU only loop for now until you get more funds for a CPU loop?

GPU loop is 10x more important than CPU loop, trust me on that. It always makes me laugh when people drop a nut on water cooling their CPU, and leave the important part on air.
Any Ryzen CPU can quite easily "top out" on air cooling (apart from TR but that's not a usual thing to use) and Intel can get to 4.4ghz easy on a decent air cooler or AIO.
I got 250mhz extra 24/7 boost out of my Titan XP slapping it under water. IIRC I spent about £300 cooling it, but it performs like an absolute champ and I never have to worry about it because even during the heat wave it never went over 50c.
