Fans are Corsair SP120 Quiet Series Speed: 1450 RPM
I have some AFs for the front intake of the case and will have the corsair 140mm on the back.

First question will one PMP-450 be ok or should I run two.

Second question I want to use clear hose any idea whats the best out there that will not Leach plasticizer into the loop ill be running Distilled Water,Monsoon Silver Bullet Antimicrobial G1/4 Plug and some sort of Concentrated Biocide.

Whats a good cpu bloke to run these days with the 2011.

Think that's about it for now.

Thanks.

One pump like that will do fine. Two would give you redundancy and slightly better flow, but from what I read there's no performance benefit from running dual pumps.

As for tubing, I'm a water noob, so not much help there. I use Primochill Advanced LRT tubing, which is supposedly plasticizer-free. I also used their previous generation tubing on my first build, and that stuff now has a nice white film inside the tubing after about 3-4 months use. Junk.

For CPU blocks, that depends on what you like. I love my XSPC Raystorm, but if you're looking for something more understated, you have tons of options. Phobya makes an excellent performing block (if you believe the graphs), and lots of guys run EK blocks. Aquacomputer and Watercool make some STUNNING looking blocks.
