    [HELP]Building new watercooler

    Hello everyone!

    I'm going to buy a new watercooler to cool my system.

    Asus Maximus V Formula
    Core i5 3570k @ 4.5Ghz
    HD 7970 ( Future CF)

    I chose these components:

    Swiftech MCP655?
    Alphacool NexXxoS UT60 Full Copper Single 120mm
    Alphacool NexXxoS UT60 Full Copper Triple 120mm
    Alphacool Cape Corp Coolplex Pro 25 LT - 250mm
    EK Dual Bay SPIN Reservoir w/ Flow Meter - Acetal White
    EK Supreme LTX Intel CPU Liquid Cooling Block - Nickel CSQ
    EK Radeon HD 7970 VGA Liquid Cooling Block - Nickel CSQ
    Heatkiller GPU-X? 79X0 Radeon HD 7950 / 7970 Reference Design Backplate
    PrimoChill PrimoFlex Advanced LRT Tubing 3/8"ID x 5/8" OD - Clear (PFLEXA-58)
    Fans: ???
    Cooler Master Cosmos S

    The system is good?
    I liked the two reservoirs.. there any problems in use the two in one loop?
    A single MCP 655 is enough for it all?

    Sorry for the bad english, i'm from Brazil.

    Thanks for any Help!

    A single pump would be enough

    Not sure about using the dual loop res in single loop, maybe someone else can offer you an answer for that.

    What? 2 res? Okay, but that is just counter-intuitive. Every fitting is a chance for leaks. are you doing it for, goodness, I have no idea why.

    I'll give you a place you can read and learn 2-3 weeks before you even decide to buy one part. And at this place we have many WC experts and want the new WC to learn all the lingo and basics first. It's my home. We treat folks right that take the effort to learn. And we are %500 more active there and have in many forums these things called "STICKIES", in yellow. Make a hello post in the WC area and get to work reading. You gloss over the basics, ignore the other sticky links, then don't bother wasting our time.

    Please head over there and begin your journey. You'll see my name many times in the stickies and in posts.
