1. What is your budget?
2. Dont get water cooling unless your planning on doing heavy overclocking

I wouldnt suggest water cooling. One of my friends had it, and it takes quite a bit of maintanence compared to air cooling. That and it is very expensive compared to air cooling

Wiat, you want to overlclock without overclocking? Thats doesn't make any sense.DKdeadly said:

Water cooling isnt for someone who may overclock their CPU, its best for someone who plans on doing heavy overclocking

As other have said, its true that you really only need water cooling if your planning on some heavy overclocking. Even then, some of the times the temps arent a problem with overclocking, so water wouldnt do much...
But if you insist, here are some good liquid cooling systems:

That and watercooling may not be worth all the maintanence. Its not at the point where you plug it in and leave it running without doing anything yet. But heck, i don't know you, and what you do and not do, so heres a link to a pretty good one. If you want the best cooling, buy another one of these so you will have two radiators, and two pumps:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118120
ight but if i wanna have it water cooled because i might overclock in the future its not like its doing any thing bad right?Cuz it makes the processor cool so it lasts more and mabye performs better right?
And another question would the ZALMAN RESERATOR 1 Plus be better than this one Koolance PC4-1036BK ??

Well there could be things bad. It can destroy your entire system if it isn't put together correctly. It requites high maintance. It's more expensive. And it really doesn't increase performance unless your cpu is overheating right now.

If your really bored and you enjoy taking care of things, then get watercooling. Depending on the type you get it will probably cool down your comp but:
1. If you install it incorrectly, your in for quite a treat
2. Its high maintinance(?) so basically dont get it unless you really wanna push the temps of your computer

So..if i dont overclock...i dont need it? Water cooling is not only for the sole purpose of overclocking, it can be for aesthetic reason(bling-bling), better cooling for your CPUbigsaucybob said:
Honestly, its not that "HIGH" as you mentioned, ived been using watercooling for almost 1 1/2 yrs now and maintenance was never a problem.liuliuboy said:

Yes, thats basically true just not in this case. With dkdeadly hes got basically an unlimited budget, so then it might be "bling-bling". But its still hard to maintain and can ruin your system.
You guys made it seem like you didnt want him to get it, must be jealousy. Anyhow, how big is your case? Do you have room for an internal liquid cooling system? I would go with these externals:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835106040
or my personal favorite for internal, very adaptable:

You put the 2 radiators to the cpu, then the 1 radiator to your cards, getting this set you will learn alot about cooling, easy instillation, and you will learn how to make custom kits yourself, even tanks.

yea i know they are trying to help me but i said i want water cooling and i dont care if you its only needed when i overclock the sytem i just want it because air is simple but water cooling is newer and its better in my opinion so any other suggestion on water coolings?
