    Exclamation oh noes! another n00b question..

    Ellow from Denmark, peeps. My first post on XS, w00t

    I was hoping you guys could give me some advice on which components to use for my current system (no budget) - see system details in the siggie. I can run it rock stable at 3.2 GHz but I get too high temps for my taste; 56/62 (idle/load - Zalman Reserator 1+)..

    (Wrt water cooling I'm a total n00b yet I have read most available guides I could find around the net.. I've been overclocking since Pentium133-days and assembled more systems than I can count, so no worries there)

    I'm currently stuck at the following choices:

    Fan(s): 120 mm Papst 4412/F2GLL (18 db, 70 cfm)
    Rad: D-TEK Pro-120 Core *
    Tube: 12 mm, 10 mm inside
    Reservoir: D-TEK Bay-Rez 5,25
    CPU-WB: EK Wave (AMD64)
    Chipset: EK NF4 rev. 1.1
    Pump: Laing D5 **

    * = Was looking at gocchin's solution with the Antec case but not sure I wanna get into that, so considering a external triple/+.. Prolly Thermochill PA120.3 or a MO-RA 2 Core?

    ** = Is it overkill with a D5? I do want lower temps, but on the other hand I dont need a rig under the desk that sounds like an A380 at take-off

    Thanx in advance, peeps
