Does this look good so far?.. I'll be adding another 8g of RAM later on.

The thing is.. I want to do custom liquid cooling for RAM, CPU and GPUs. However, I am confused by all these fittings and what not. I just need a list of things I need to make this cooling circuitry.. And I can handle the rest.

Which brings me to SSDs and cooling for all that. Any advice? Tell me what to buy so I can get this done :)

Cheers.
 
Gaming = SSD good
Long term storage but constantly accessed files such as for video editing = SSD bad
 
Probably one of the best ideas I ever did was buy an ssd. Install an ssd for gaming (kiss loading screens goodbye) and a regular mechanical hard drive for other files like pictures and such.
 
Eh, I'd just get an SSD for an OS or something that takes awhile to load, and you aren't frequently changing.
I'd suggest you get a traditional mechanical hard-drive for everything else.
