Heh well maybe, it is a massive job of finding the right parts, and stuff that will work, but watercooling is pretty simple once you have bought all of your parts ;)

But the damn fittings are crazy expensive, like you wouldn't believe, a single 13/10 fitting costs 5 euros and the 45* and 90* adapters have 7 to 9 euro, then you factor in how many fittings you'll need, and always order more, cause you'll always find a spot were the tube would be bend to hard so you need a 90* adapter.

Like on the waterblock for my GPU i need to use a 90* > 8mm extender > 90* > 13/10 fitting not cheap, but it is the best option for a nice looking loop, i think you could just the fittings op the GPU block the pictures, but either way you see the tube routing soon. ;)

Made the mount for my temp sensor display, only a beta version at this point

But it still needs some black paint ;)
