If you are happy with your AIO, you dont need a new one. If you are unhappy with it and if you want to go to a full custom loop, i would also not order the Eisbaer. And yes, i would go for a complete custom loop because you have enough space for it and if optic doesn`t matter... i would choose those parts for everything.
That are all parts you will need:
GPU cooler:

CPU cooler:

You need one of the normal XPX cooler. Not XP³ and not the Eisbaer Solo stuff. Performance of all XPX coolers are more or less the same (1° differences, dont care about it)

Doesnt has the best look, but very easy to use and DDC310 is a good nice pump.
But i would prefere this combination:

Pump:

D5 is the best pump on the market. We have VPP655 pumps they are running since 7-8 years without any problems. And you can controll the pump very simple over PWM. Bit more expensive, but its worth the money.
Tube:

I am using this tube in all my privat systems and we are using this tube also for all our Enterprise Customers.
Radiators.... for a Custom setup and this case i would use a 360 V2 and 240 V2 radiator.

V.2 radiators because of the flat stop plug fittings. Easier for mounting. If you want to save a bit money, choose the normal NexXxoS version, no problem.
Fittings.... you need 2 fittings for each part in your loop. So with this parts you need 10 fittings. I like this fittings a lot:

They are not made by nylon not by brass. We are using them also in all our Enterprise systems. They have a barrier ring for the tube, so they hold the hoses up to a tensile force of 15kg. You will need two 6pcs sets for your loop. We dont sell them as single version right now.
Something that is really nice to have is a drain port. I never use it in my systems because in my eyes its easy to drain the loop if you dissmount the reservoir and you are using tubes. Then you can simply lift the expansion tank and tip it over. That has always worked well for me. Only with HardTubes this is not possible, but in your case it doesn't matter.
And Liquid..... i would use Tec Protect you will need 2 bottles:

Its helpfull to have this to fill the loop:
