So was curious if I use this water cooling solution from
https://www.ekfluidgaming.com/ek-fluid-gaming-a240r

and two of these expansion with it so I can use the two 360 Rads

I will be also purchasing another water block

Would this be enough to cool two vega 64 cards and CPU

I also awhile back had purchase this kit from ThermalTake
https://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002789
and never used the pump.

I was curious if I should use the pump from thermaltake or one come with the EK kit above. I am also getting other parts for the loop. Will this pump work fine with kit above even though it is aluminium?

My next question is should I just use the custom configuration and get the parts they recommend that are cooper base?
Here are the parts they recommend

As long as the parts are of the same metal you shouldnt have problems and expand the kit as much as you can move the fluid. I have the A360G kit and love it. My 5820k at 4.4 and 1080 Ti at 2100 are both between 60 and 62 degrees. under load.

Depending on what is in the pump it shouldnt have many problems. Fittings and any metal inside may be the concerning part.
 
If you do EK's aluminum kit, stick with EK's aluminum parts.

Personally, as you're building a large loop, I don't think the "budget" aluminum option makes much sense. The extra cost of copper will be worth the ability to change parts easily in the future. If you're all aluminum, you'll be stuck waiting on EK to make blocks for new hardware you may upgrade to later on.
 
Yeah I have decided to go with EK Cooper Parts. I am just going to use the thermaltake pump as I really like how it works.
