ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3080 OC 10GB
ASUSmy doesn't allow their users to remove the heatsink and replace it with waterblock
They will void the warranty for that. If you haven't bought it yet, you might want to look for EVGA, Zotac, Gigabyte or MSI

2x Corsair XL5 performance coolant ( each CPU has two radiator, inlet and outlet )
Avoid XL5. It makes my custom loop cloudy just after 1 month
Get EK CryoFuel instead

4x Corsair X7 radiator 360mm
2x Corsair Hydro X series pump
Dump these 2 and get the BYKSKI RC series radiator & Bykski & Barrow reservoir + pump instead
You'll spend less money for the same performance with Bykski/Barrow products

PMMA is stronger and have good heat dissipation compared to PETG
Tubing has nothing to do with heat dissipation. Where did you get this false information?

and PETG only some coolant are supported.
Also nonsense. I've been using EK Cryofuel on PETG tubes for several years now, no issues whatsoever
Also, if this is the first time you're doing a custom loop, you might want to go with PETG instead of Acrylic
Acrylic may look nice but it's harder to bend and a lot of mistakes can happen during bending. Acrylic is also prone to shatter & cracks

I don't actually have the tools for PMMA
Are you talking about the bending tools? I don't use any
I only use the heat gun & my own hands to bend the tubes
To me, using my own hands & eyes provides much better results compared to using those bending tools
