Liquid cooling "which I have" uses a non-conductive liquid not, Water. Self installed I haven't had a problem.

Anything installed Halfassed can be a nightmare includeing a simple fan.

Is there any all-in-one Watercooling kits out there FIREWALL

at some time in the future it is something I'd like to seriously think about

And Ford Prefect,what is Vapochill

Sorry for the dummy questions but I've just got a new system worth doing things to so I'm looking around at different stuff

All my previous systems were made up of other peoples cast off equipment,But now I'm all ears for any advice

$795.99 and the product has been discontinued.

No small wonder why. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

@ Nikbear I use Coolermaster. Give me a few and I will post links.

Or you can GOOGLE " Liquid Cooling for PC "

nikbear · 07-30-09, 04:27 PM

How Much!!!!!

Clever stuff I'm sure but a tad 'overkill' for my needs

FIREWALL · 07-30-09, 04:59 PM

Here we go.

My case : http://www.coolermaster.com/products...detail&id=3947

My cooling system : http://www.coolermaster.com/products...cate=1&id=3855

Won't be upgradeing either for a looong time.

A little off topic but though you guys would get a kick out of it.

I cleaned my CPU heatsink the other day it had a lot of dust and smoke tar on it.

I carefully removed it and put it in the dishwasher ! :rotfl:

Came out clean as new

So basically a refrigerator inside your case.

For that price I'd put it in a regular fridge with space left for plenty of sixpacks. Talk about 'cool running'!

Vapochill is a company that make refridgeration cooling for computers, they do both stand alone units that can be hitches up to near any pc or towers to use. I've got the stand alone unit, lightspeed I think they called it. I've not seen it since september 2005 when I moved to norway, me and my belongings haven't managed to coincide in the same place at the same time since! The pc I had the vapochill unit on was over clocked by insane amounts and remained stable because it still ran at 40 degrees below freezing! For gaming it was well worth the money.

Asetek is the company that made Vapochill as well as liquid cooling systems.

They are no longer in business. So no replacement parts for a $800.00 + system.

Bad choice with whats available out there today.
