I'm taking my first dive into water cooling, and I'm doing so with a small (but quiet) case and a limited budget...yikes. My goal is to make the most efficient water cooling setup for under $150, and still make it possible to overclock the living daylights out of my soon-to-be Pentium D 805. I don't really care about aesthetics as much as quiet, as almost nobody but me looks at my computer, and I have a Sonata II . It should all be here (at my house) by this monday, and I will post some pics as the week goes on. For now, 'drool' over the specs, and hope to god this all works as well as I hope.
I am in need of a Radbox to fit my radiator in the loop, once I find one for cheap and get back from my trip, I'll put it all together.
HOLY WATER BATMAN!!! 3.624GHz, 32c idle, 35c load, 27 seconds 1MB SuperPi!!!!! {STILL TESTING}
