Help, check my shopping list

[Nightbird]

Hi, please check my list to make sure I haven't goofed anywhere. This is for my mineral cooling test rig so the components are less compared to a regular water cooling setup.

The loop I need is pump->tube->radiator->tube, easy right?

EK-DCP 4.0 12v DC Pump (+ $54.95)
Swiftech MCR320-QP Quiet Power 3X120mm (+ $49.95)
x2 EK High Flow 1/2in. ID Barb (+ $4.50)
x3 Scythe 120x25mm SlipStream SY1225SL12SH - 110 CFM (for 3: + $23.85)
Durelene PVC tubing 7/16in. ID 5/8in. OD by Saint-Gobain (8ft + $3.60)
EK High Flow Fittings G 1/4 to 1/2in. ID Barb (+ $2.50)
Arctic Silver Ceramique CMQ-22G 22 Gram Syringe ( + $6.95)

subtotal: $146.30

from sidewinder computers.

I used the start list sticky to select 7/16in tubing to fit snuggly over the 1/2in barbs, that advice is good right?

If I can get this list cheaper somewhere else, please let me know. I'd like to downgrade the pump if possible for something much cheaper. Fans too. Still, with shipping costs, everything from one place might be more cost effective.

urg, mmm, did I post something wrong?

I'm interested in knowing whether the tube will work fine with the fittings, and whether the fittings are correct for the radiator and pump. I'm also getting Teflon tape to keep everything water tight.

If you don't have a reservoir set up then I'd recommend adding a swiftech micro-res to feed the liquid to the pump. Running the pump dry can lead to damage.

The pump will be fully submerged in mineral oil. I guess I'll order tomorrow, since it'll probably be monday before they deliver.

Submitted the order! I switched to yate loons after finding them on their website. They didn't list them in the 120mm fans section :/

Cool, be sure to post some pics after you've got it setup. Have fun with that.
