Which sucks. I'd rather throw my computer into a pond.

Heh. Don't do that! If you want to get rid of it, just give it to me.

While it isn't the greatest, it did bring the temps of my severly overheating prescott somewhat under control..dropped my load temps from the mid 70s and throttling at stock with a thermalright XP-120, to the mid 50's while overclocked. A64's generaly run cool enough that water cooling won't bring the temps down much over air cooling, unless you used chilled water, which will of course bring the costs up.

Currently using my watercooling system on an ultra-hot 1.75vcore (stock) 2100+ at 2.0vcore and running 35C load on this system, soon to be on my new A64 system that is all in the mail, but it'll cost you big bucks. Everything is 1/2" ID and all the fittings are 5/8" brass (Tygon fits over the next size up if you put it in boiling water).

Iwaki MD20RZT - $~200 (22ft. of head, 20W of heat, 75% of which is dispersed into the air and 25% into the water.)
Dual Weapon Heatercore w/ Custom Shroud and 2 Customized Sanyo Denki's (If you know weapon on hardforums you know what I'm talking about) $100
Silverprop HL $~55
Fillport that directly plugs into a tee - $12
RBX w/ Brass Top and flow nozzles - $56

and all the misc stuff such as Swiftech HydrX fluid and what not.
this would be considered a top of the line system if thats what your lookin for

try looking at the Cooler Master AQUAGATE Mini R120 if you have a 120mm exhaust fan, or if you have an 80mm exhaust fan look at the AQUAGATE Mini R80 - I think it is a pretty slick system is only a cpu cooler but only costs $100 or less and is easy to install.

LOOK at this video review it will give you a better idea of the product than a simple write up->

Probably better off with just air cooling though...cheaper and more importantly, safer.

Apart from the heatercore all prices above are for average quality stuff. High end waterblocks cost more.

Heatercore are cheap if you modify, solder barbs on yourself and paint them yourself. Otherwise they look ghetto or you have to pay more to get a ready to go heatercore.

He would probalby be better off with air cooling, but since air cooling couldn't keep my cpu from throttling it was the only choice I had left..doesn't do much good to use "safer" air cooling if it keeps my processor from running at it's rated speed..

I put together my watercooling setup for ~$180. See my post here. You could knock $50 off that price if you don't want to watercool the GPU.

I'm very satisfied with the performance of H2O over the XP-120 I used to have. But if you don't like to do a lot of your own work or deal with the added maintenance issues of watercooling than I'd say stick with a good hsf like the XP-120, XP-90, Scythe Shogun, etc.
