Ok I am running the fountain cooler setup on the front page while ago. Water temp is 19c in the morning and warms up to about 24c at max. I am going to be buying a 9800 pretty soon and I wanted to water cool it. I saw the MCW50-T and figured it would be pretty fun (I have done sub-zero setups before so insulation shouldn't be an issue. But I do have some quesion on it) Will my fountain be able to handle it you think? I think so but I want to make sure.

Now will I see much of a higher overclock with the MCW50-T than with just the normal MCW50? Anyone doing a similar setup? Comments? Recommendations?

by the sounds of it, it doesnt seem to be able to handle the cpu or gpu or whatever you got on it very well. I would say no, there isnt anyway that itll handle it.
You might possibly be able to get similar temps with a really good radiator as you do with your fountain cooler.
When you add that peltier, itll raise the temps a good amount.

Oops that was a max temp of usually 22c with ambient temp of 22-23c. So thats not good, ok. Do you think I should add the 20 foot copper coil to the water loop like the guide says? I never bothered putting that in. So you think if i do cool the video card I should use a seperate loop with a radiator. I will look into it.
