Wow...thats an amazing deal. I wish I had a hundred on me, cause I'd grab that. For those unfamiliar with Asetek, they make the phase change cooler Vapochill, and while relatively unheard of they do have some good stuff. Only problem I see with it is a single 120mm radiator instead of a double for three blocks, but for that price it's an easy compromise.

Eh, it looks OK, but I haven't had any experience with Asetek. If you were going to get into water cooling and you wanted something easy to set up and that's effective, I'd get the Swiftech H2O-120 Compact kit.

Default Re: Cooling kit

its nice for just starter but in long run you'll most definite ly replace the blocks and the radiator, due to the fact acrylic tops are very fast to deteriorate in quality, and 120 Rad is not that better than high end air cooling, so you'll be better off costumizing your own kit...

Those should be OK for a starter ......;),, They'll start seeing their limits if you start tossing in a GPU block and start OC'ing everything.

Default Re: Cooling kit

after careful considering, just picked up the scythe ninja plus rev b with the 120 mm fan.
It does 2 things now, cools the CPU, fan blows air at the GPU and sits ontop of the northbridge, all 3 things running cooler now LOL
