I'm considering "taking the plunge," so to speak. I can't bear the noise of my Tornado any longer. The only thing I can't figure out is where to place all the required components for a good watercooling setup. Seeing as how I only have one CDROM drive and 2 hard drives, I would utilize my 5.25" bays for a reservoir, and the 3.5" space below my hard drives for the pump.
The only thing I am having trouble with is finding a place for a decent radiator.
At first I considered screwing it to the back of my case where two 80mm fans reside and adding two more high output low noise fans on the outside of the radiator to have a push-pull type radiator sandwich.
Then I thought of raising my case about 1" off the ground and cutting a massive hole in the bottom for a radiator that would accomodate two 120mm fans which would pull air out of the case and push it out under the computer.
Which option would be better for performance?
