Where do you buy water cooling in aus?

Idk the title isn't relevant any more..

I was thinking about getting the XSPC Rasa 750 rx360 wc kit.
But after looking it all up the pump and reservoir in the kit would need to be replaced to run an sli wc setup.

So I decided I wasn't going to get the kit, and but all the parts separately.
I have no idea on the quality of the parts, so would someone please be able to tell me if what i've chosen would be able to cool in this config
res - pump - rad - cpu - gfx - gfx - res ?

10x - Bitspower G1/4 Matte Black 1/2 Fitting - $3.50 (each)

And 2m of UV green PrimoChill 1/2 ID Tubing from someone on ebay (only place I could find in aus) - $40

and then later on 2 GPU blocks for what ever card's I have and a connector to run them in series.

Would the pump run this, and would that rad be sufficient?

Yeah I should have looked for another 30 seconds before I posted this.
Thanks Wolf.

Tubing here.

What are you cooling in this loop? If just cpu a 240 rad will be fine. That pump is crap, tho, get one of these if you can afford it. And what case is it going in?

Edit - should have read the first post better! If you're cooling 2 graphics cards, 480 rad would be best, any combination will do (240+240, 360+120, etc).

Do you know if a 480 rad fits IN (keyword) the haf x?
and would it really be needed to have a 480mm of rad?

Should I get 7/16 tubing for 1/2 if i'm going to be using 1/2 barbs?

Thanks so much buzz.

I think that 360 rad will fit the case, just check all your measurements before ordering.
The 120 rad will need high rpm fans, this one will be better.
If you want a bay res, this one will take the pump as well, makes routing the tubing easier and saves space

What about gpu blocks? Or do you have some already?
7/16 tubing will fit tighter on the barbs if you don't want to use clamps, I'd use compression fittings for safety and looks.
Those fans are no good for rads, either, something like this with a fan controller would be good

This is going to be for my next system so I don't know what cards I'm going to get yet, really just depends on the money.

Thanks for helping me buzz

A 240 rad is fine, i cool my GTX580s and the 240 rad manages the temps below 55oC playing BF3 at Ultra settings - 100% gpu utilisation.
