First Water-Cooling Experience

maybe £50-150??? Depends on the benefits.
It will take a long time to save up, my parents will save £100 per month. Also the stuff I am selling. So by my birthday (november)
 
Really? I really like the look, It's a bit big. But it fit's under the desk. The desk is 700mm high
600 mm deep
need to move it forward.
Thanks

I'd have said te same, but to me he doesn't seem to be skimping on other components in order to get watercooling, seems more like an investment :D

Bhakt: a window is good for seeing components; that's what it's there for! It's certainly better than metal...
 
lol, things have changed the past years (minutes)
I was planning on bankrupting my parents a year ago with a 990x
but have decided not too. It will take some time for the money. I have learnt quite a bit about watercooling from here :)
Thanks
also will water cooling void CPU warenty? I know its a dumb question
also when I get it should I install stock cooler to test if everything is working?
