Yeah, it's been a while. Mostly done with my build. Eventually replacing the PSU, Getting a Kraken X61 and adding a second GTX 970. Specs can be seen in my Mod's Rig link.

OK, going custom loop. Have an EK Supremacy MX coming. Now my dilemma. Black tubing and blue monsoon compressions or blue tubing and black monsoon compressions.....

Nice build and very good job on the cable management. My opinion on the tubing is black with blue fittings. The blue tubing you will end up with won't match the blue already in the system. And that will look a little weird with contrasting blues. Even the blue fittings will be different, but they will be small enough that it shouldn't be as noticeable.

Was leaning that way... Then thought use clear tubing and use distilled and try to mix a close shade with additives lol.

I got an old 240mm Black Ice GT Stealth mounted in front with a pair of Corsair SP120 High Performance fans pushing and and old DDC with Alphacool acrylic top. EK Supremacy MX is arriving tomorrow so just need fittings, tubing and res. Thinking blue Monsoon Centerline's and black tubing and EK tube res.

got the stuff today and double disappointed. Fittings are darker than they looked online, and the Alphacool pump top was supposed to be black, not clear.... argh. Well show must go on. Also didn't think I would need 90's so going to have the pump outlet facing the back of the case. Now figuring tube routing. Pump ->Rad->Block->Res or Pump->Block->Rad->Res ????

All Done until my fluid fans and controller get here. Went pump->block->rad->res Currently at 4.5Ghz 1.27v. Not sure if I can go lower at this speed. Just thought it would be a safe place to start and good for now. Guy I got the CPU from said he had it at 5Ghz so may go more. Was surprised that old rad is keeping it cool.

Ok, Just ordered some clear 3/8 x 1/2" Primochill PETG, Monsoon matte black Economy Hardline fittings and a Monsoon bend kit. Hopefully I have better luck with this PETG stuff vs acrylic. Going to order Mayhems Auroroa II Nebula Blue next check. Cant wait to see it in action! EDIT Here is how it looks now before I switch to hard tube.
