Does anyone sell full out liquid cooling systems with cases? i was looking at alphacool, but i'm looking more for some place here in the states. 2 reasons, shipping & euro to dollar exchange rate sucks.

Otherwise I'm trying to find a cooling kit if anyone wants to suggest one with a large 3 fan radiator.

I'm also looking for I guess just a big full tower case that roomy and cheap, doesn't necessarily have to be aluminum or anything fancy. I figure I can dremel some holes for more fans and such.. Only thing I really want the liquid cooling for is the cpu.

Koolance, but they're $$$$$ plus you still have to buy the blocks, coolant, etc.

CM Stacker is a great case for water. What's your budget? A good triple rad on a budget is the Swiftech MCR320 http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=200&products_id=4309 or you can get a Thermochill Pa 120.3

Stacker STC-T01 was on sale at SVC for like $90; which is a major steal for a huge, quality case.

Well can you buy the regular TT armor and just add the extra 120mm fan in front so it's basically just like the LCS minus all the crappy TT wc parts?

thanks for all your help guys. looking around. I think for the modest OC i'm gonna do for my e6400. I am going to just try and do some air cooling with some nice sinks & fans on nb/sb & cpu. I am gonna post another thread tho asking what ppl think would be a good case for a desktop for air cooling. i appreicate the assistance, lcs just seems too much money for me right now.

If you are going to do water cooling, you ought to do it properly, and get a decent case and a custom setup, or at least a decent swiftech setup etc. Its pointless getting a poor performace prebuilt setup as you are unlikely to get any better temps than a decent air setup and its more hassle. If I was you, i'd save up a bit more money and get something like a Coolermaster stacker or LianLi G70 and kit it out with a swiftech setup or custom setup.
