    Hows water cooling working for you?

    I'm thinking of going that route when I build my new computer.

    What are you running in those hoses? Raw Sewage?? Come on man! Clean those hoses out and put some nice green coloring in it.

    And is that a large water spot I see on the bottom of your case?

    Hoses become discolored after awhile, notice the 1 newer hose going from cpu to graphics card how purty and clear it looks. Im running orange coolant in distilled water. Notice the orange in the bay res above hardrives. I run just enough coolant for anticorrosion and no more, i do this for the performance not the looks =). The hose is very thick so as to not kink thats why it looks like crap after awhile to.

    oh sure, i of course could make it look really cool by simply adding a UV reactive dye to water and a black neon light! They do look really kewl when yah do it to.

    I got my stuff from trading post, ebay and online retailer for the hose.

    I have a Danger Den Maze3, (now u can buy Maze4). Danger den bay res and I also have a swiftech MCW40 GPU water block, an enhiem 1046 pump, a rear VW vanagon heatercore with custom shroud and AC 120mm fan and about 6ft of 1/2 clearflex thickwalled tubing.

    If u want a all in one kit i suggest Swiftech cases for ease of use but pricey, innovatek for prolly #1 performance yet pricey and more difficult to install, (but worth it if u got the $)! then i would recommend Corsair's kit or Koolance's kits for super easy usage with decent performance.

    Sounds like a bit of work but not really if u like mechanical stuff especially. Also consider i havent had to do anything to mine in many months since originally setup except blow out radiatior dust bunnies on occasion.

    If anyone becomes more interested in actually buying a setup and installing id be more than happy to give some tips n tricks@!
