I am all for water cooling if your familiar with doing it - or used to building regular pc's and can take the time to do it right.

However - that only fits Intel chips - I priced the best Phenom2 to meet the price window - so you would end up having to change MB and CPU. Not hard to do by any means - but the I cores run a bit more expensive. If you can swing the intel chip and board with water cooler - shoot ya man!
