Does anyone know of any good water cooling kits out there?, and where i can find them?

I will spend about 250$

Also how much space do i need to install one? I have the X-Dreamer case.

Thanks

Before you buy one all I have to say is that its not worth the moeny spent. Unless you have money to blow off then dont get one.

Honestly, the case you have now seems fine (It serves the purpose, and looks good while doing it). Water cooling is too excessive, and your temps are fine. Instead of the water cooling, buy a better Hdd, Video Card, or upgrade the Proc. RAM if you need that much more speed. Enjoy using the computer rather than finding faults with it :D

Are you talking about the case or the water cooling? Im probly not getting the case.

And joe, i do like water cooling and have always wanted to get one, if i do i will get better ram and oc my proc.

I can get the water cooling and still get a Better hdd and Video card. But the video card will have to wait till next month

Well since you're overclocking the Proc. see how fast you can get the Vid. Card to, just to hold you till your vid card upgrade....

Thanks joe, i dont think the thermaltake will be enough to oc my 2400+. Can any one recommend an external water cooling kit since i have little room inside my case.

Is nice, but after including the attachments for it it comes out to about 300$ , im going to see when the Aqarius 3 comes out before i buy something. If the AQ3 is a resonable price then im going to go with that.

Okay, keep us posted....
Have you looked into perhaps water cooled cases?
