What gmat said is right. PVC is great. The only problem is, unlike hose, it isn't flexible. I recommend a hybrid of the two. Use PVC for stationary parts like the reservoir, pump, radiator, and such, but when you attach it to the waterblock. Make sure there is a good amount of hose from the PVC to the block and back. If the PVC is straight onto the block, a sudden jar could have the PVC nudge the block and dismount it. Those hose would prevent that.
