The problem I see with silicon or tygon tubing is, if you have 12mm OD hose that ID will be like 8 or something like that, but with those pneumatic hoses 12/10mm you could do turns with radius of ~10cm, so for straight watercooling with only cpu block you could very well use those (which have btw very, very smoth surface so the flow is definetly better than the same size silicon, tygon hose), but when using nb and/or gpu block I can's see a way connecting all blocks just with silicon/tygon without any kinks.
But yeah I think you could use those hoses but because they are softer there's a danger of pulling the hose from fitting, but to be certain I would have to try it, I might do that tomorrow if I'll get some 12mm silicon hose.
