wanted your guys opinion on this???

[CSHawkeye81]

was gonan get a koolance setup, but some ppl have been critisising it and all, just was wondering will it be more effective then my alpha heatsink??

[jdmcnudgent]

yes it woulb be better than you HSF, but i dont really care for the koolance. i would rather build my own custom setup, but thats me, and i will be setting up water pretty soon for the rig in my sig.:D

[Darth_Malice]

say hawkeye you got the 2.4b just like i told ya! Did you manage to get any good o/cs like i was able to? I got the highest to like 3600mhz! good luck with yours! (BTW THIS IS Darryl_D)

[CSHawkeye81]

not really i am gonna rma this once i get my 2.26 in, also jd dont you have a vapochill?? and is it worth it?

[Wiggin]

How much does a typical water cooling setup cost? I thought I had read that it was a few hundred dollars.

[strokeside]

Koolance is good for a fair amount of heat, but for systems giving off a lot of heat, and if you really don't want to have to think about "Is my cooling holding me back?", build your own setup, it's not that dear, and if you don't want to put it in your case, buy a small box to have beside your PC to put it in.

I see you seek for the absolute power from your systems

So..if this is true...forget watercooling

....You NEED a Sub Zero

So..start saving money

I second that!! I even hate my koolance case, it's not even cooler than my oldie swiftech MCX478 on air!! .. dude, you either have to go Vapochill or Prometeia chillin' systems .. I kinda like the vapochill more but it's just my opinion :)

[Darth_Malice]

ya those vapos will kill ya with the cost! But in the mighty words of someone from here's siggy that i can't remember.... "Money talks but all mine ever say's is good bye"... that is so true! But ya know hawkeye is rich (i think) i bet all he needs to do is snap his fingers and his butler will go and order a vapo for him :p.... that or get his neighbor really really drunk so he can just steal his :p Good luck hawkeye... and i dunno what went wrong with your chip.... all hte ones i've worked with were real good!!!

JD, I just check prometia .. I think it has some kind of compatibility issues, BD7II wasn't listed (so I was like :( ) . I think they're more specific to mobos / socket type etc etc .. bleh!
