i see a lot of ppl that poseted their comp pics have a water cooling system. What is the Best one?(price wise and efficient wise) and i already have a thermaltake typhoon on my cpu so i dont know if it will get in the way or if the cpu part is optional.

umm lots of different places. most people get a watercooling kit just for the cpu. dangerden has the best selection and prices imo. i just purchased all my stuff from there. why do you want to water cool? ask yourself that first, and secondly do you feel comfortable installing it, if so then does your case have room? answer those and everyone will have a better idea how to help you.

not really, plan it out and you should be fine. just have to be patient and do your homework.

Agreed, dangerden is the best. Don't buy a kit. It's like building your own computer, if you build your own, you get more bang from your buck. Same thing with water cooling. Build a system. extremeoverclocking.com has a wonder forum and some great stickies in the water cooling section on how to build you own system, best parts for what you need, etc.

It's not that hard, it is no more difficult than building a PC. Just takes some time to get it right. If you like putting things together, you will have a good time.

I offered a few "Do and don't" when I built mine.

Hope it helps

Speaking of which, have your parts arrived yet?
