My cooling system...............
Just a little bit of water cooling;
Swiftech MCR320 & 220 radiators
Swiftech MCP655 pump
Swiftech APOGEE CPU block
Swiftech MCW60 GPU block
Swiftech MC14 BGA video ram sinks
Home made 40 oz res.
5 TT 120mm fans on the radiators running at 6v controled by a Sunbeam Rheobus.

I like to keep things cool............

Hehehe. I've seen your "Watercooled" system many many many times before, sbrehm. And...it's always great to see it and get impressed over and over again... I'm speechless.
Anyway, I'm currently using CoolerMaster Hyper 6+ Air Cooler to cool down my X2 3800+ CPU.
Again very nice sbrehm. I am still using air as I am not eager to mix water with electronics. I use a sweet TT Big Typhoon. _________________ all your base are belong to us

Very nice system. One of the cleanest I think I've seen. _________________ I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. - Oath of office of the President of the United States

Thanks all, I take a lot of pride in keeping the system clean. Seems that I'm always working on the thing also, so I guess that helps.......... _________________ "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."........Albert Einstein

Everything is so nice and neat, that it actually looks like there is a lot less there until you take the time to look more closely at the picture.
I was curious. You got a lot of fans on the system. How is the noise level on it?
I'm running all the fans at 6v so the noise level is pretty low. I have the option to crank them up to 12v if for any reason the room gets hoter during the summer months. Even with them turned up all the way the system is still quietier than my sons air cooled system.

Really neat setup.
What were your temps with aircooling?
I am currently looking for water cooling, but cant really find the right system. I tried one, but no go, only got like 3 degrees off.
What kind of case is that?
I've never had thi rig on air cooling except for my video card for about a week. The temps I was getting on it OC'd to 550/1600 on air were 40c idle and 65c load with a room temp of around 22c. Now on water cooling the idle temp is 31c and load temps while benchmarking have beed as high as 35c. That's a pretty good drop.
The case is from Mountain Mods, it's called the U2 UFO.
