Water Cooling!

Who here has water cooling on your pc? Cause when i got my pc built i was considering it but kinda forgot about it but now my pc is on 24/7 and it gets up to 49*C/120*F and it's not bad but it can be colder. So let me know how hard it is to do and how much it cost you.

how much colder do you want it?

what mobo do you have?

you might be able to spend less and get yourself a thermalright slk-800 or slk-900 with a nice fan and some sort of fan controller.

I was using watercooling, but I'm not ATM. Its pretty easy, and I went with a custom setup. The pre-builts generally suck. Its easier if you have a mobo with mounting holes BTW, but there are work-a-rounds.

49* is just fine if your PC is stable. I wouldn't even worry about it. If you are just looking for slightly lower temps, I've had good success with SLK-800s and 900us. The 900 will be quieter if you use a 92mm fan.
