Hello

I'm trying to find a water cooling solution that fits the budget and doesn't make a hole in my wallet...:)

Which one is cheaper?:

1. Buy a ready-out-of-box water cooling kit
2. Buy separate parts and set it up by myself

And if I buy a kit, would these choices be any good for the money?

Thermaltake BigWater 745 - $135.58
CoolIt Eliminator - $143.03
Asetek 03-L-1340 KT03A-12VS Waterchill 120mm - $151.88
(All kits shipping not included)

or buy these parts and build them:

Zalman ZM-WB3 - $44.24
Hydor L25 In line Pump (265GPH) - $43.90
Swiftech MCRES Reservoir - $22.92
Danger Den Black Ice Pro 120 - $32.90
1/2" Clear Vinyl Tube (1/2 ID x 5/8 OD 5ft) - $10.55
Total: $154.51 (shipping included)

Any ideas or thoughts?
 
Oh and what kind of antifreeze would be the most cheapest one for my setup?

It just needs to be blue, that's all

Thanks again guys
