First-time experience with the Liquid Cooling System? Need assistance.
Hello, I've only done a few threads but I still find new ideas every day, so I need your opinion on water cooling. The kit I plan to buy includes a small reservoir and pump. However, I want to add another radiator measuring 240mm thick and 360mm in diameter. Will this reservoir and pump be sufficient for both radiators? I’m worried it might not be enough. Therefore, I’ll only cool two components.
I’m ordering the following items:

Water cooling projects offer valuable lessons with each build, as even experienced builders discover new insights when they apply their hands. It's crucial to ask precise questions about aspects you might not completely grasp regarding water cooling. Many common errors stem from overlooking the fact that your current setup may not be optimized for water cooling, leading to compromises that limit effectiveness. Regardless of your understanding, you're still relying on air cooling with ambient air—consider this carefully.
You don't have to buy the filling bottle, but if you're willing to spend $8, it's worth it.
The separate res holder is unnecessary because the res is included in the pump—it comes through the top.
Yes, that pump would work just as well. Radiators are among the most flexible parts.

Since you're using a Razer NZXT H440, do you think it will fit on the front? You might need to remove some metal from the box, but I'm not sure how to properly fit the resevoar (pump).
It seems you might want to explore alternative approaches, but it appears your strategy involves some flexibility.
Do you have to purchase directly from EK? You'll find better deals at www.performance-pcs.com if you can buy through them?
I believe he's asking why we should buy from EK instead of ordering from another site for a lower price. When it comes from the USA, and I pay, do we have any chance to claim VAT when it arrives in the UK? Or once I pay for the parts, everything will be fine and there won't be any extra costs because if not, I'll buy from them since they're much cheaper.
