So I've finally got all the parts for my WC setup (shipping to Greenland is a nightmare). Anyways I've attached an image of how I plan on running the loop. I'm only doing the CPU and my parts are listing below in my signature. I just wanted to get some feedback before I start bending the acrylic tubes and putting them in place.

Is that a GPU or another radiator on the left?

Looks to be a Reservoir to the left and possibly a push pull setup on the right side. I think it will work but every build I've seen with a P5 has the res to the immediate left of rad which should not be an issue with a 980ti. Plus I think a res/pump combo would be better in that location which would be a whole lot less tubing and a much cleaner look.  With a multi port rad filling would be easy and put a drain off the pump out or d5 top out for easy maintenance.

Yea I originally wanted the res on the outside like in the picture so I could have some nice long lines with the acrylic tubes. I've changed it to go the immediate left of the rad now. Unfortunately the rubber insert tube was too big. I've ordered the monsoon tube as reviews say it fits perfectly.
 
I've also been playing around with the idea of getting another 270 photon res and putting it on the right side. I think that would look pretty cool. 
 
I'm going to put a valve coming off a 180 T from the output on the pump (faces out from the case).
 
Waiting another 2 weeks for the insert tube to get here is going to drive me crazy lol.

Yep no fun having to wait for something in the middle of a build.
