Water cooling isn't a 'cheaper cooling' option. It can actually get quite expensive.

If you need better cooling for cheap, I'd suggest a second, or a higher speed fan.

Water cooling is one of the more expensive methods of cooling (not to mention impressive looking :D). Your best bet is to do what most computer techs do: invest in another HSF and/or case fan.

Actually I have an Athlon XP 2100+ that runs very cool now. I have 2 exaust fans, plus the 2 power supply fans and then two intake fans. Also my heatsink in the new liquid cooled AeroCool HSF. Works great! More fans = cooler temps!
