I'm building a new rig, that will be

INTEL CORE I7-4790K 4.00GHZ LGA1150 - BOX
CORSAIR CMD16GX3M2A2400C11 DOMINATOR PLATINUM 16GB (2X8GB) DDR3 2400MHZ DUAL CHANNEL KIT
SAMSUNG MZ-7TE250BW 840 EVO SERIES SSD 250GB 2.5'' SATA3
ASUS MAXIMUS VII FORMULA RETAIL WATCH DOGS BUNDLE
WESTERN DIGITAL WD20EZRX 2TB CAVIAR GREEN SATA3
EVGA SUPERNOVA 1000 G2 POWER SUPPLY 1000W
CORSAIR OBSIDIAN SERIES 900D BLACK


For fans ill be using CORSAIR AIR SERIES AF120 QUIET EDITION HIGH AIRFLOW 120MM FAN


So my watercooling shopping list so far is

1) XSPC RayStorm
2) Masterkleer tubing PVC Clear
3) Alphacool 16/10 compression fitting
4) Alphacool 16/10 compression fitting 90° revolvable
5) Alphacool 16/10 compression fitting 45° revolvable
6) Phobya 2 valve for draining the loop
7) Phobya Balancer 250 black matte <- I am not sure about that one...it might look small into 900D...maybe i shall go for the Balancer 450?
8) Koolance Laing D5 top
9) Alphacool VPP655PWM - Single Edition
10) Aquacomputer Shoggy Sandwich building kit for pump
11) Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper 360mm <- will be placing that rad on top
12) Phobya G-Changer 480 V.2 - Full Copper <-That rad will go in the bottom place


What do you guys think?

I am a bit biased about the Alphacool fittings, but sadly, aquatuning doesnt have anything else (they have their own, the aquatuning fittings)
 
I would put all that in a Corsair 780T instead of the 900D with just 2 360mm rads.

You forgot to list your gpu(s)?

I like the 900D, give space for upgrades :)

One rad is 480

No, for GPU i will use the one i already have, the GTX 780 DCU2 ^^

-------------

I would have gone for the caselabs SMA8 but the shipping cost to europe is insane :/

You won't need a 1000Watt PSU for a GTX780. Even with an 850 Watt unit you can easily add another 780 later down the line.

Please don't double post, use the

I'm thinking going for GTX TITAN X SLI when they are out. That's why i am getting the 1000watt PSU :)

Anyone tried the alphacool fittings?

Hmm even then I'm not sure if you need them, considering the very low power draw on the current Maxwell cards. Or is the Titan X going to be the follow-up to the Titan Z and be a dual GPU?

If no; You'll probably be fine with an 850 Watt, although it might be worth it to wait until official specs are released.
If yes; No, don't get quad SLI. Stop. No.
