I just ordered my first water cooler.
 Going to cool VGA and CPU with it I think. Maybe then I can challenge the fastest P4 on DH. In fact, I think I will make an attempt. |

whats so dumb about watercooling you get better performance and less noise just the noise alone of my computer made it more then worthwhile for me and I don't ever see myself going back to air cooled again. Those Koolance cases aren't bad a good place to start to get the ideas behind watercooling but if you want performance above and beyond that you are going to want something more powerful, bigger radiator better waterblock bigger tubing, maybe even some Peltier coolers, oh the possibilities
P.S. water chiller which they sell for watercooling systems that actually refrigurate the water is another possibility but if you want some really good reading on water cooling a computer try www.procooling.com |

You should have built your own, its much more rewarding. If your worried about breaking stuff I guess its a good deal.

Um, that'll be quite tough Sharkims...... Cuz that cooler won't get you sub zero temps, and I think that's what you'll need. But good luck anyways.

The P4 isn't actualy that far ahead of me... At stock speeds I score the same if not higher... :-P
In refference to ease. Right now, I got this system to learn the basics of Water cooling. I'm sure I will go into my own water cooled system soon. |

You are gonna need LN2 to challenge him. I used LN2 on my PIII700 (The really good one that could hit 980 before it died) I was able to take it up to 1071, and I probably could have gone higher if it hadent been for the mobo. It was still in very negitive temps. With watercooling my limit was still only 980. With air I was only able to reach 960. It will give you better OCs, but not nearly as good as LN2 can.

Ohhhhh, nvm. I was thinking of lardarse. I don't know about the p4 guy. He doesn't spend much time in the forums. Lardarse always shows off his newest projects and helps people with theirs.
