    Where do you guys go for liquid cooling. I am looking at trying it and getting myself all hooked up.

    by the way USA close to Alaska would be better.

    well i bought my things second hand on these forums and i saved about £50 doing so. so get a list of what you need and go to the market place and you can also ask for somethings as people might have something spare. but if you want everything new i recomend this site for you. http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php

    +1 for Performance-Pcs as well. Great customer service and a darn good selection. I just wish you could narrow your search a bit more, especially when looking for fittings :wallbash:

    Do not run the cooling loop outside! You get stupid amounts of condensation in the case.... :duh:

    Yeah, didn't someone else on this forum do something like that, where the radiator was mounted outside? If I recall, all kinds of things made their nest inside the radiator fins, but temps were impressive.

    I think so, like I said in that thread, the temps in Alaska get pretty damn cold, unless the OP is in Anchorage or Juneau. I had a computer quit on me because it was out in the shed. At -30F or -40F the drive bearings froze.
