I know what you will say, don't buy pre-assembled kits. I'm new to water cooling and just want a rig that will give me good temperatures without having to pick and choose different individual parts. Basically I'm buying a new system and want it as cool as possible because I want to overclock it. I'm getting a 3200+ s939 Winchester A64 with the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum. My cooling solutoins are either the Thermaltake Aquarius III liquid cooling or the XP-90 + tornado fan. Keeping in mind that I don't want to make a custom WC solution, which would be best? Thanks for your help.

XP-90 is going to be loud as hell.
To some it's literrally unbearable....

jEevion · Nov 20, 2004

If I choose to get the XP-90 and the tornado fan, I'll have the Vantec NXP-305 fan and light controller. I really want to look into a watercooling solution; money isn't an issue really, I just want to be able to buy an entire kit and benefit from water cooling. What suggestions do some of you have without developing my own bundle? How is the Thermaltake Aquarius III? Thanks.

If your getting a kit i would suggest this and customize it. http://www.dangerden.com/mall/Kits/kits_custom.asp

Yeah - the only exception to the kits rule would be the "kits" from DangerDen and DTek Customs. Those just make the pick and choose process a little easier.

link to the dtek one http://www.dtekcustoms.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=102

http://www.swiftnets.com/ - go to liquid cooling then kits

It would still be cheaper to just get the parts seperatly but if you get one of the kits from DTEK, DD, or swiftech at least you get quality parts.

What about this?

I'm in Canada btw.

that pump is really low quality for that price and that fan will be loud. The WB is good, and the rad is decent.

jEevion · Nov 20, 2004

Would this Water cooler be any good?

Get a swiftech kit.

swifteck pump&waterblock ,,black ice radors have fun

That looks pretty weak, I wouldn't recommend it.

jEevion · Nov 20, 2004

This?

https://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=11946&vpn=H20-22600-64&manufacture=Swiftech

Are there any reviews I can read on this?

devilscow22 · Nov 20, 2004

that is starting to look a little better, the pump is a MCP600 witch is a very nice pump and with the swiftech WB should perform well. That rad would perfom worse than a ~25$ heatercore but it shouldent be horrible.

johan851 · Nov 21, 2004

Yeah, that looks good, but you don't really need a lot of the stuff in it. Can you buy the waterblock and pump seperately, and get your own heatercore and tubing?

It looks decent. The MCP600 is a VERY nice pump and block performs VERY well. However, the Rad's expensive and underperforming. Why don't you just buy the parts seperatly? You would save a bundle and it honestly isn't that hard to set up a WC'ing loop...

quality "kits", something like that is the way to go, you will save money getting everything from one place and not buying stuff that you end up not needing.

jEevion · Nov 21, 2004

I can only buy either from a retailer or ncix, I don't care about wasting money, I just want a god kit that will keep my winchester cool enough to hit ~2.6ghz.
