I have been thinking about water cooling for a couple of weeks now and I was wondering the possibility of getting my oced 3.2 Prescott load temps into the 30's with a water cooling setup?
What would be some good components to use? While i am at it I would like to cool my graphics card also. I would like to keep it somewhat quiet cause I have this computer hooked up to my home theater.

Thanks,
Ed
 
Sure it's possible. If your load temps are 49 right now with a mid-range heatsink a high-end watercooling system might drop it 9 degrees. Might end up being noisy though.
 
On my setup my temps dropped 10~12° going from a sp94 with a 80mm tornado to water cooled system. So you should drop about the same.

What kind of setup do you have or what do you recommend?
