| 820696 | 2009-10-15 00:51:00 | www.computerlounge.co.nz Something like that is good for just CPU. Your case needs to be able to fit it all though. I've had a water cooled system for 3 years now, and it's barely worth it unless you want to overclock like a psycho. It also is not quiet, or at least not as quiet as a good air cooled system can be. |

Did it increase your electrical consumption? Many years ago I heard that liquid cooled system were notorious for draining power.. |

I'm looking at getting a Intel to replace the aging AMD that I currently have. I may end up over clocking if it will be required to get more out of the CPU. |

Just get a TRUE 120 for now. |

| 820704 | 2009-10-15 08:42:00 | Yep, don't go watercooling unless you're OCing heavily or just a dumbass when it comes to splashing out money for PC hardware (ie, me). I got my E8600 to 4.25GHz for everyday use, 4.6GHz for benchmarking. At 4.6GHz temps even with my mid-high end WC setup I get 72 on each core! Granted I was using IBR, not P95 or OCCT. |
