GPU & CPU Closed Loop Watercooling GTX 1060 i7

Hi, I've just build my first gaming system using second hand parts as a project to make sure i get it right before i screw up a new system I plan to build.

I'm looking for advice on getting a closed loop water cooler for my GPU and CPU and would like advice on products, I would like RGB for both if possible.

What compatible coolers should I get?

GPU EVGA GTX 1060 - this is the one I most want to do first as the stock cooling fan on it is loud

Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V LX
CPU Intel Core i7 2600K

for the gpu
there isnt always a full cover block available
you need to know the exact model number of the gpu
then try looking on EK cooling configurator
if they dont do it byski would be your other hope

Which case do you have? This will determine the compatible radiators.

You might get better answers in the watercooling forum so I'll report this for a move.

BTW if you really did mean a closed loop cooler and not a full watercooling loop, check out this video:

Sorry read it as a loop
Rather than an AIO
Which was it?
Custom loop or all in one?

hunt down GPX waterblock for it and QDC kit for your GPU
