| 629989 | 2008-01-13 08:28:00 | Hi looking at water cooling for the pc im building I dont have lots of room for a custom kit so i have been looking at kits. Ok i have looked up about the thermaltake Bigwater 760I CL-W0121 2 bay kit and its not that great and been told its not. www.thermaltake.co.nz I then looked up the Aquagate ALC-U01 2 bay kit but can only get it in silver. www.coolermaster.com I also started thinking if both of them units leaked thay would leak on to the HDD's and i dont want that As i am running 6 HDD's, And to refill/topup them would be hard as would have a dvd drive above them. I was looking at this water cooling kit till i read reviews and found out the is not good and makes stragne sounds and sum times stops. and the cpu holder bolts are cheap. www.coolitsystems.com So i started looking again at the COOLIT systems but the better newer version thats got a new better pump and design. www.coolitsystems.com d=26 Dont want to have to look round and buy parts and build a water cooling kit. Any one no of any other kits like this? Thanks |

| 629991 | 2008-01-13 10:29:00 | Work on my pc. Any ways i have read about water cooling at been on forums to sum people i no and thay have told me to stay with fans. Just get better fans. This is a replay: Unless you get a custom kit (such as the ones done by Chilled PC or Over-Clock in the UK), theres really no point switching to water. Most of the premade kits are rubbish both for cooling & noise, your better off upgrading fans and running them off a fan controller.only do water cooling if you are going to spend loads of $$ into it and sum times then fans can be close to water cooling temps. So im looking for silent fans now found this one at the shop i get a lot of parts from no other shops have. 69.60.3.241 |

| 629994 | 2008-01-13 21:36:00 | Are you overclocking it? If not, then there's not really much point (apart from bragging rights) in getting these. I assume you are, but you never know really. Also, you can get them with external reservoirs to minimise risk through leaks. | Thebananamonkey (7741) | ||

If really want to watercool, get a decent cpu 1st LOL.....oops sorry, try this link (forums.anandtech.com) |

| 629997 | 2008-01-14 09:40:00 | This seems to say that the water cooler you've found is worth it. Cooling the cpu below ambient temp is fairly amazing. They said it's not worth it under heaps of overclocking though. It's dumb that it still has a (apparently fairly noisy) fan. So you're not really killing what most people are after with it. anyway... you want fans so I just thought I'd add my bit in www.legitreviews.com |

| 629998 | 2008-01-15 02:00:00 | Yeh that water cooler i looked at and the pump makes strange sounds after a sort time. so i looked at the new version the Coolit Freezone CPU Cooler. and found that had not a very good pump. but hay getting a new really good pump and swap the **** one and you would have a better kit. www.coolitsystems.com other links that didnt work are. Thermaltake Big water 760i 2x 5.25 bay kit www.thermaltakeusa.com Coolmaster Aquagate 2x 2.25 bay kit www.coolermaster.com The fan on it just swap it for a silten fan or get a adaptor to 120mm from 90mm and have a 120mm silent fan blowing more aire in. |
