Nice Xen..
I want to try water cooling but It's too risky for me. As fid mentioned, How quiet does that beast run? |

well my pump has a potentiometer, i can hear the pump and water in the reservoir when i have it on 5 (max). With my radiator, it seems to stay coolest at about 2. I hear my hard drives over my pump and 2 fans.
I did get a small leak (few drops) last night from the radiator fitting (luckily at the bottom of my case), but it was just a crooked clamp. No other probs as of yet.

I'm thinking of going to an auto parts store and picking up a cheap heater core to see how much cooler it will run than my radiator, though I would have to make an external box or add on to my case to fit.
