    why are you upgrading your cooling to WC? If its for silence and not overclocking then go for a cheap WC solution. If you want it for getting better overclocks then you'll need to pay for it. A decent aircooler will get you the same temps as a watercooling system costing twice as much.

    Even though I'm a watercooling junkie I'd have to agree with L31mr0d.

    A good aircooled solution will be quiet and give almost the same temps. For decent watercooling you will need to spend some money...€200 should see a good system setup.

    What is it you want to watercool?

    If just the CPU then THIS is pretty good. I've used all these components and all work well.

    Have a look round Alphacool's site....have a wealth of stuff!

    Looking at the pic of chipset location and the size of the vid card I reckon it might be hard to find a block thin enough to watercool the chipset.
    You will get a quieter PC by cooling the cpu and vid card TBH. What vid card have you? Maybe if you lose the huge aircooler on the vid card it could give enough room for a chipset block.

    TBH in that case I reckon a good quality quiet air cooler for the cpu is the best option.

    Most folks seem to be going for THIS for its extremely good performance vs noise.

    I personally would advise spending huge amounts of money on a watercooling system....but I'm a bit odd like that :D
