Looking for water cooling part suggestions

This.

I'd go for Primochill Primoflex tubing with some Mayhem's Pastel red, but that's just me.

Bitspower makes some awesome fittings, so I'd go for matte black 1/2" barbs or 1/2" ID 3/4" OD compression fittings, depends on what you like.

Tubing should be 7/16 ID if using barbs barbs, and 1/2" ID/ 3/4" OD for compression fittings.

Sounds good, I'll have a look at those. Thanks :)

I'll be using 2 SSD's and 1 3.5" drive, so 1 of the HDD cage can be removed. There will be 1 dvd/blue-ray drive and possible a fan controller so I can remove the hot swap bay and get a dual res in. Currently, a Corsair AX850 seems to be a good PSU, for the fact you can buy colour cables for it, so red ones may go well. A single 7970 GPU, motherboard may vary but ASUS have a nice range of red/black V Formula boards for AMD and Intel. And the case being the NZXT Switch in black.

Sorry missed that - go for an AX650, not the AX850. 850w is massive overkill for that rig. TTLs orca rig is a similar spec, just a much higher powered processor and he's running that on an AX650
 
But that has nothing to do with the cpu, that is all about the integrated graphics and quite frankly is you are buying a high powered processor I would expect you to be buying a graphics card
 
Yep, allso you see games with higer resolutions to pick up with frames somehow then lowerrange on that test, how you explane that?
Edit; Mean 10xx x 7xx with fx 8150 who u are kiding with?

Anyways nexst new(socket) Intell is main, no mather how you put it :P

You guys gotta take it easy. You can't just storm in to every thread and say "MSI GD-65 and 3570K /end". People are entitled to their opinions and the parts they want to use. The GD65 is a great board, but there are other great boards too. The 3570K is a great CPU, but it's not the only one. And when the guy says like seven times he's only here for water cooling advice even after you've clearly made your point, it's time to let it go.

Guess what I'm saying is that it's a "Personal Computer", so give people the info they need to know, then let them choose what they want in the end.

Hmm, Unfortunately the suggested XSPC Raystorm waterblock has blue LED's in it, which wouldn't go at all :( Anyone have any other suggestions for AM3+ or LGA-1155 CPU? Also, would need to support 1/2" ID since thats what all the other parts are so far.

The ones that go in the Raystorm are actually 3mm LEDs, not as common but still easy to get. You can either just not use them or swap em out for red which is really easy as well.
