I am looking to get water cooling for my system, and am looking to buy a kit. I have come across a couple that are in my price range, definetly not extreme cooling, but I want to keep my componenets cold. How are the few that I mention here, any suggestions would be appreciated, but keep in mind that the Bigwater Cooling system is about as pricey as it can be. Here are two that I like.

Thermaltake BigWater

Best Price I've found is 102.

Kingwin AWC-1 Arctic Liquid Cooling System
http://www.kingwin.com/pdut_detail.asp?LineID=&CateID=53&ID=187
$84.00

I see that the BigWater Kit has to be installed using 4 holes around the CPU. Will my motherboard accept that or is there any other way to get around that?

Suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks:)

I would go with the Tt bigwater, just an opinion, u mentioned that its $102, if you are willing to wait and save a little more $$, you can get a better WC kit than bigwater although i would not recommend a kit for performance reason and upgradability.Check on other brand like Swiftech, Corsair(swiftech rebranded) Asetek, Dangerden to name a few :)

Not sure what you mean by "but if you would save a bit more money", but could you mention a couple of the better WC kits that are in that price range. Also, would I save money by getting individual parts instead of a kit?


EDIT: The water block fits, I just saw a video on installation.

Thanks :)
