it looks really good. but i was thinking that there shuld maybe be something about how watevercooling is somewhat of a waste of money if the person doesnt plan on heavy overclocking. i dunno maybe u were just trying to talk about parts of the watercooling, thought i wuld throw it out there.

I think it IS a waist of money because i can cost over a hundred dollars when you could just buy the next rated CPU, unless you have the MAX in the first place. so i agree with bigsaucybob

Well fortunatly this is not, IS IT WORTH IT 101. Im sure it was a guide to liquid cooling, and to advice and teach people about liquid cooling, So if its worth it or not is not a topic here.
