i'm entertaining the idea of doing a water cooling setup in my rig. i have finally gotten over the fear of leaks and now the benefits of liquid are too hard to ignore, especially after seeing an e8400 at 4.7ghz.

i was looking at this one. the only thing that worries me is the lack of feedback. so far all the feedback is good but at the time of posting there are only 4 reviews.

i am only looking to cool my CPU. no video cards or anything else, strictly CPU. id like to keep the setup as minimalistic as possible while still being effective. anyone have any suggestions or personal experience with this kinda stuff?

my pricerange is up to 150 tops, but i would really like to keep it closer to 100.

thanks in advance

BTW i have read the liquid cooling 101 thread so if anyone tells me to go there i will have you killed.

*edit - another thing i forgot to add is that i prefer to have the pump outside of the case. i am not opposed to the idea of having a 100% external setup either.

Look into how much watercooling really costs. Check out frozencpu.com's prices for DangerDen pumps, radiators, and blocks. Might be able to afford more than you think.
