Aquarius Liquid Cooling..

Hello all,

Ever since I thought about building my first computer, I've always wanted a water cooling system to go along with it, one that's affordable and does a good job of cooling the cpu.. though I've been swayed both ways between fans and water cooling.. I would like other peoples opinions about them.. I would also like you to know that I know it is true you probably only need a water cooling system unless you really put a lot on your cpu.. I probably don't that much, but I'd still like water cooling.. thanks..

Todd

If you are looking to keep the price down go with the SLK900 HS and a Delta 92mm fan.

This will do as good as some of the lower end low cost water cooling kits from what I understand.

The TT Aquarius, though low priced, doesn't cool very well. Sure you don't put up with the noise of a loud fan, but you don't get much better cooling than one. Check out that site above, there you can get a custom, higher quality kit for just a little more money that will cool better, wiht about the same noise...the noise depends on the pump and the fans you use to cool the radiator.
