Thanks very much, anyone have the idea how could cost me to do all of this.

I'm new in this kind of things actually I need it for my work, I'm Graphic Designer and every speed counts to make the job more faster.

I can't afford to buy a Mach II or Vapochill so I would like to do it myself.

That direct-die guide by bowman on phase-change.com dosn't inform me alot on the filling etc.

If your doing it for graphics design I wouldent be messing with insulation, subambiant temps and crazy volts and OCs. I'd go for a watercooled rig.

[FallenAngel]

My main goal is for my work, but if I can squeeze some extra MGz for playing and benching, then why not? but it's true I might consider your opinion because I'm new in OC's and from what I've read in this forum perhaps it's better to start smaller to get big afterwards.

I'd start with water. Its alot easier and cheaper and you dont have to worry about insulation or anything. Custom phasechange isint THAT expensive. Parts can be cheaper than watercooling if you look around. It takes alot of knowledge and like 250+ in tools though.

i would defenently go for watter cooling,
reason ?
Your comp is not so exposed as it where to be with a phasechange. Its silent, and some other reasons that i cant write because im so slow on the keys on this darn board.
And the compressor ARNT made for 24/7 usage. they need rest.

Thanks guys, you've enlighted me.

So what do you think of Asetek's WaterChill (CPU, NB and GCard), there are at least 3 versions what is best?

UP to you, maybe jsut get the kit with it all :)

Ask itn he watercooling forum about this though.
