Watercooler I Just Bought.

Okay when I post this someone will tell me hundreds of reason why I should have bought something else, or it sucks or I got ripped, But here we go. I bought a Z4 extreme pro intercooler kit, The heavy duty one. I read a couple of post and reviews on boards and it seemed like a nice kit. The part I like (Since I am a Car nut) is the Billet parts that come in this kit.

 

Here is a link if you are not up to par on this kit

Love to know..

 

Also, how much quieter your system is after it is installed

When I get the kit I will give some pics of the stuff they send me. I will also do a before and after. right now I am running 150fsb with stock voltage and a copper heatsink and 5800rpm fan on a 1800+ I plan on unlocking the CPU and maybe try to get up in 1.9 range. (Fingers crossed). You got to admit the billet tank looks cool. ;)

On the water kit described above... What type of fuild setup should I run? I heard people putting redline waterwetter in and also antifreeze and others. Any ideas?

 

Do you think I should mount the rad at the top of the case and cut out a fan hole to pull outside air through the rad?

Watercooling with waterwetter works well... (hmmm) except that it can cause the inside of your tubes to become hazy... It also smells better than most water additives. Antifreeze is not recommended, unless you're running a system with like 5 hi-power peltiers or something :D But seriously... antifreeze doesn't help the heat transfer...

 

For your radiator mounting, mounting it in the top of the case works pretty well, unless you have room for the fan and radiator in the lower front of your case in front of your HDD's. I use the top radiator because the fan pulls the outside air in and vents it through the side vents in the top of the case... Not sure what case you have, so if you do set it up pulling air in the top, it would benefit you to have good airflow out through the back of the case.
