Hi All,

Got an E6600 on an abit aw 9d board with 4 gig or ram in a I Lian-Li PC V1000case.
I have a Zalman flower cooler running at half speed but its
still a bit noisy for my liking so my question is...
Is there a water cooling kit for simpletons ?
Just plug and go.
I like the idea of the Big Water 760i but no one appears to have one in stock.
Is there an alternative you guys can recommend ?
No more than £150.

Thanks in advance,
Ade

forget big water m8.
Water cooling aint that hard... just read lots and most importantly take your time and do not drink whilst puttign rig together. Leak test by jumping the psu.
You could try the switech compact 120 (see oc store) but reports are that it virbates a bit which will be an issue in your ally case.
shopping list
pa160 or pa120.2(radiator)
dtek db-1 or ddc (pump)
dtek fuzion (cpu waterblock)
masterkleer tubing
fan

should be under budget and will really peform well. cpu block only though.. but then again so is your zalman.

i have a m8 called ade - do you live in nottingham btw?

This kit seems very easy to setup, not plug and play but comes with good instructions and everthing you need to get started.
