Liquid Cooling

I am interested in buying a liquid cooling system for my AMD 2700+ Right now I have a Volcano 11+ on, but it doensn't seem to cool like it should. I was wondering what the best liquid cooling kit would be the best for under 250 dollars.
Thanks in Advance

You might want to check out Danger Den. I used one of their waterblocks when I was watercooling and it kept my 2500+ cool even when the vcore was at 2v. They sell kits at Danger Den which can probably cool better than the Innovatek kit. They're also pretty good at replying to e-mails. If you have questions, ask them.

If you want to buy a whole kit, the best out now you can buy is the Corsair Hydrocool 200.

However, in most tests, home built water cooling systems outperform prebuilt kits. Check out that Danger Den link above and the forums/Water Cooling section on http://www.overclockers.com/ for more information on how to do that.

Do you think MAZE4 Power Kit is really good? Good enough for my amd 2700+ 2.17 ghz to 2.6 or 2.7?

I dont have any personal experience with this, but I have been thinking about it: http://www.xoxide.com/crwsmiiiwaco.html
Anyone know anything about it?

My 2500 runs at 125 with a Glacialtech Silent Breeze on it.

Yeah that liquid cooling system does look pretty sweet, does anybody have it, or know if it cools good enough for an AMD 2700+ to reach 2.6-2.7GHZ with a decent temp?
