No sweat. More or less all hardware is available in 3/8" or 1/2" variants... all the topend stuff takes 1/4" threaded fittings... and you can get more or less every possible fitting in that size to support whatever size hose you want. eg: Swiftech blocks come with both 1/2" and 3/8" fittings in the box...

Cheers man that's the first comment I've gotten so far that has been useful and not told me to scrap the lot.
 
I only said that as I've had TT kit and I know the build quality of it. As Marci said, it is standard sized stuff

As to whether it's worth using a high end CPU block with TT kit...decide for yourself but personally I see no point

Heh I never asked anything about that dude, I wanted to know if there were full cover GPU blocks available for 3/8" tubes :p

I'll say it once more for your benefit but I don't have enough money for a new case AND a water system, hence buying a preinstalled :p

EK blocks are the best bet for full coverage 3/8" IMHO.

I gathered that, thanks. Personally you're better off with good air cooling. Again, in my opinion

Heh well you say that, but in my testing so far... whoops the ass off air cooling.
 
Well bear in mind it's a 4000+ but the temps are 23 internal ambient, 26 cpu, 25 hdds and they don't stray much over 30 on full load whereas on air cooling I'd be lucky to keep the cpu under 40. I'm still modding the case but when I'm done I'll be sure to run repeated tests to get some spot on figures.
