Forget the hassle of watercooling your chipset, get a HR-05.

The NB water blocks are only a few dollars more expensive than the HR05 or the swiftc NB HSF.
It DOES NOT restrict flow all that much
IT IS a lot cooler than usin air cooling...
IT CAN help you to OC just that little bit more...

However, the P5W DH only has TWO hooks for the NB sink... makes a WB on there almost impossible.

I use the two hole thing to mount my MCW30 to my MB.... I have had no problems with it at all its very secure....
The MCW30 is suprisingly small, I have seen people cool the NB and the SB and run SLI on Evga 680i MBs.

A small fan on the NB will cool it very well. You don't need water cooling on there. My NB isn't hot to touch with just the fan working at 70%.
Here is a good fan you can control with your mobo header

I'm aircooling my P5W, but I am also using the same Swiftech nb cooler as nik and it works well and even runs passively for me with no fan installed with my present aircooled setup. I guess I have enough airflow around the nb area that I don't need active cooling on the MXC159-Cu.
