It's not that simple.
3/8" ID is a minimum requirement, for an average system, so that the tubing doesn't become a significant restriction.
1/2" ID minimum is for those "extreme" water coolers, with flow rates ~2 gpm.
There's really no point in 1/4" tubing, unless the cooling loop is space restricted (aka water cooling a Shuttle, or rack mount unit), IMO.
