First time water cooling.

[overcl0cker]

Hi guys

I've never really taken the time to look at water cooling and what it's capable of untill recently when I got my new C2D rig. I looked at cooling potentials and the overclocking capability that watercooling brings along, and I must say, I'm impressed.

However, I've never touched this stuff in my life so I wouldn't know where to go for a decent kit, or even install it! Can anybody suggest a decent kit for like, £150 to £200. I'm planning on upgrading next pay pack (Only work part time, I'm a student )..

Cheers!

Either one according to your budget.

How easy are they to fit if you've not done it before =]?

The blocks are reasonably easy the hardest thing to fit is normally the radiator but providing you have a place to put it it should be too difficult. My only advise is to plan what you are going to do before you do it!!

Will either of those kits fit onto an Antec P180? I've just bought it and I don't want to have to splash out on another kit!

Stick the rad out the back using the supplied radbox; see here for a pic of a smaller radiator on the back of another Antec case. Yours should fit in much the same way if you want the easy route.
