    In lieu of my case mod, i'm trying to find a w/c for my northbridge. It's a P5WD2-E mobo; specs in sig.

    I'm going to try to watercool asmuch as is humanely possible - is it worth cooling RAM/MOSFETs/HDDs/etc?

    I am probably going to put a fet cooler on the X1900; IIRC there were adapter plates that connected the FET coolers to the main GPU block, but now cant' find any - they're all fully contained (expensive) blocks now.

    I might try doing the PSU if i feel brave enough...

    Can anyone recommend a decent cooler? I have alphacool CPU/CPU blocks atm.

    Also, I was looking into creating a waterfall effect - adding another layer of acrylic on the side/front and making the water flow through it; anyone with experience of this? I imagine sealing it will be a pain.

    Also do the bolts holding the mobo to the acrylic need to be grounded together?
