Ive always been intrigued by the idea of water cooling, but not going to now that i finally got my air cooling problems solved. But I was wondering if it was possible to use those metal braided tubes instead of clear plastic tubes? Perhaps redo the connection so they are more industrial like aircraft hydrolics use (fittings and tubing). It would get you a safer connection. Only problem I see is the metal braiding of the tubes if they ever touched anything they werent supposed to. But I kinda like the idea of looking into my computer to see metal flex tubing running around. :) Yey? Ney?

Yea, but be careful of rusting and solder to cover any leaks. A minus would be that you cannot see any air bubbles to troubleshoot any such blockages.
