any one used this watercooling?

i already have a zalman 9500 but my temps are annoying me, i can't get cooler than 48 degrees load :o so if i can't fix it, this looks like a nice kit.

thanks
 
my spec is zalman 9500 on an opteron 146 2.6ghz 2gb ballistixs and an asus v9999 (6800) graphics card, and an msi k8n neo2 platinum mobo. my gfx runs at about 50 degrees and this sits right next to my zalman (1 cm away) could this be contributing to the high temps? (im going to put a zalman cooler on this). my case temps are around 20 degrees +/- 1 degree. i have a fan blowing onto my zalman fan in the side of my case and 2 exhaust fans and 3 intake fans at the front.

i know i should stop looking at temps but i can't help it - i want to keep clocking my cpu but can't until i get some decent temps i.e. <40 load.

jdl what variables are you referring to, and how can i fiddle with them?

thanks

am using the newest bios, and temps with the case side on and off are the same. however i have invested in a "compunurse" thermometer to put under the HSF next to the core to see what the actual temps are.

JDL - no dust yet, have ordered a zalman and already have a pci exhaust fan. yes intakes blow over HDD however i have a side intake over the zalman.
