    I've been reading on and off about watercooling for some time now, i think i'm ready finally to take the plunge and try it for the first time.

    up untill last week i was convinced on getting a thermaltake kit to do it all. most reviews have been great, but theres been enough dodgy reviews in the past week i've seen to make me uncertain, so i'm going to try another company if there is no real complaints from people. Aquatech on scan.co.uk seem good, i'd like to buy there

    Anyway: i realise i'm a little too drunk to make the decision now, but i'd appreciate it greatly if someone could help...

    case is and i'd like a good CPU liquid cooler to fit in it...

    Any suggestions extremely welcome

    (was in the pub tonight, about 4x similar IT-minded people were interested in consolidating a SCAN.CO.UK order, so if i can get this off scan it'd save loads of cash for us all... :D)

    AFAIK Aquatech's products aren't really the best on the market (but certainly better than the TT bigwater).

    I personally would opt for a setup comprised of DangerDen, Swiftech, EK-Waterblocks, D-Tek, LIANG, Thermochill, and/or Hardware Labs components

    As said in another thread its not worth getting watercooling unless you get something fairly decent or otherwise you might as well have decent air cooling , the swiftech kits are good for people new to watercooling and the components used are alot better than say the thermaltake etc .

    For those new to H2O cooling the Swiftech or Petra's Tech "kits" are the way to go; quality parts and everything you need to get going.

    Similar (and better) spec kits can be found from Native suppliers in the UK...

    eg: http://store.over-clock.com/prespec_kits.html

    Who are Aquatech? I see Asetek & Aqua-Computer.... no Aquatech.... :D
