If you're looking to build something to help overclocking the inexpensive kits are generally worse than high end air-cooling.
I agree...
The watercooling kit should be open not closed / sealed unit because it should allow me to put the distilled water.
Unless I have miss-understand, this is a bad idea. In the event of a leak you want to be using non-conductive coolant liquid. $friend had water cooling, it sprung a leak 'thankfully' over only one part, one of this graphics cards, which after being drained and dried still worked.

Technically pure distilled water can get pretty damn close to being non-conductive or at least it will start off that way. Unfortunately it won't stay that way very long. :)
Oh and I agree on the cheap water cooling kits being rubbish, just don't bother and get well sorted forced air cooling.
