Best Watercooling kit

[joe pic]

I'm somewhat a n00b when it comes to watercooling, but I really would like one in my system..

In your opinion, what is the best water cooling kit out there?

easiest, most reliable, not too expensive...

the most I would like to spend is $200.


thanks

Does it really make sense with a 4200 X2 and a 7600GT? I'd spend the $200 on a new CPU or video card.

Also, unless you buy a high-end water cooling system, usually high-end air coolers exceed the performance of water cooling- and do it quieter at that (Radiators are LOUD).

I think it's a bad idea- if you want to OC, get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233001&Tpk=Xigmatek HDT-S963

It's $25, and it will do a better job than any $200 watercooling system.

$200 will not get you a watercooling kit that's actually worth it.

What are you looking to cool? CPU? GPU? RAM? All of them?

If you're only cooling the CPU, you can probably get something decent for $200. Look here for the best kits, I wouldn't buy kits from anywhere else:

No, it's not for that pc.

I'm looking to cool just the CPU for now. However, I want something expandable, where I can add my GPUs and other things

Any of those kits from Petra's would be a good deal. They can be expanded at a later date to add GPU cooling.

If you're going to make water cooling worth it, you have to know what you're doing when it comes to overclocking, you have to push your system beyond what air cooling can handle, and you have to buy the parts separately. Buying a kit won't get you any way near the same performance as if you bought parts.
