HI all, im thinking of putting my e6600 under a water block and was hoping someone out there could recommend a good watercooling kit that would be reasonably easy to install in a thermaltake va8000bws case, im looking to spend around £100-£150. Never done water cooling before so would be realy grateful for any advice. Thanks in advance.
which kit???

Swiftech Apex Kit
Swiftech H20-220 Apex Ultra Watercooling Kit (Socket 462/478/LGA775/754/939/940) (WC-014-SW)
The Apex "Ultra" model is an upgrade from the Apex initial release differentiating itself by the use of our new flagship Apogee water-block. The Apex Ultra liquid cooling kit is the first kit in the industry to offer truly extreme dual use: maximum performance and minimum noise in the same package. Thanks to the new Apogee water-block, it benefits from a superior thermal performance and very low restriction characteristics. This makes the Apex Ultra a true high-flow system, capable of cooling multiple high-end CPU''s and VGA''s with optimum thermal performance and low noise. Sacrificing user convenience was not an acceptable option when Swiftech developed this kit either. Given its size, the MCR220 dual 120mm radiator will not fit in most PC''s without extensive modifications. While many of our enthusiast users do not mind using the dremel tool, we are happy to report to the less mechanically-inclined users that they have not be forgotten. The H20-Apex kit is shipped standard with our MCB120 "Radbox" which allows the radiator to be installed at the back of practically any mid-or full tower cases with no other modifications than a couple of holes. Overall thermal performance also clearly benefits from the use of our Radbox
- Apogee waterblock
- MCR220 Radiator
- MCP655 12V DC Pump
- MCRES-MICRO reservoir
- MCB120 Radbox radiator mounting adapter
- 7/16" ID Tubing
- Adjustable pump speed
Full Specification
Price: £137.95 (£162.09 Including VAT at 17.5%)
This seems to be the kit that most people seem to recommend, certainly out of the ones OcUK stock (Look in Watercooling Section under More Products).
You can get the Plus Version which includes Gfx + NB waterblocks for another £50.
