Hi guys i am going to buy a watercooling kit very soon as i am now pretty sure am3 fixing's will work with am3+ :). I have narrowed my choice down to the following two kits EK-KIT H3O-Supreme LT 360 and the XSPC Rasa 750 RS360 which i would buy some other tubing for as i have read some reports of the stock tubing not being very good.

I can see advantages to both of these kits but watercooling isn't my thing now so would appreciate some help from those of you on here who know the topic and are familiar with it. As usual thank you in advance for any help it is greatly appreciated :).
 
I have the 240 version of the rasa kit with an extra 360mm radiator, and I cannot recommend it highly enough, it is incredible value for money, the CPU block is pretty much class leading :)

Have a look at the build log in my sig (click it) for just how good this kit is ;)
 
Yeah your build looks good and the temps your getting look very nice given i am going for a BD cpu so should be a little bit cooler as well (if i have read it right :)). Have read a few people saying the tubing that comes as stock with the xspc kit's is not good though and platicises if i spelt it right clouding the loop. Was thinking if i bought that kit would by some other brand tubing.
 
Its not the 360 kit, but G-Dubs did a nice review of the Rasa 240 kit here...

I've also read that some people prefer the EK kits but I believe this is personal preference. Each kit allows you to 'add too' as and when in the future.

I'm going to go for the XSPC Rasa 750 RS240 kit soon as the CM-690 II won't take anything bigger, and I can add another RS240 rad to the bottom of the case if I decide to cool the GPU.
 
Ok bought the xspc rs 360 kit in the end and 2 metres of tygon black tubing so hopefully be here within a few days and setup not long after thx for the help to those who replied was appreciatted :).
