As soon as I can get confirmation of the price of the heatercore, I am setting up the following water cooling system (all inc. shipping):

Radiator/Heater core - around $45 (best 2 fan radiators)
Pump and CPU block - around $115 (supposedly the best pump on the market)
Radiator fans - $17 (high-end fans for cheap)

And some 1/2\" ID hose (and t-splitter) from a hardware store. - around $ 8

Tiny pic and Photobucket seem to be down.  I bet the images are still in your cache.

Bump, and I forgot to show you my 'completed\" rig.

The T-splitter you see I loved, except for the fact that it leaked (inherent design flaw with a splitter that goes AROUND the tubes).  I swapped it out for an internal one.

You may want a Fan Controller, because that 120mm Fan is loud on max  :wacko:  But nice fan anyway.

I am sure when you are gaming, you can crank up the fas speed & the games sound that is.

That is exactly what I am doing Super.  However, they still move around 90CFM on low.  I don't bother adjusting them when gaming.  My CPU only hits around 37C full load at about 3GHz.  Mind you my room is around 22C.

I would have bought MUCH quieter fans if I was going to runn them full speed all the time.

Thats Cool. I am also in the process of putting fan controllers on my system.
