Cooling [ More Resolved Than Mendhak's ]
Basically I am looking for a cooling solution, I have looked around and have found water cooling to be the best solution for me, I was looking at a prebuilt case (yes im lazy im sorry) that seems to get pretty decent reviews: http://www.koolance.com/products/pro...&category_id=2
Also, I have seen that people are using peltiers to achieve temperatures below ambient temperature, which requires a seperate PSU, either that or a huge 600W one
If anyone has some input as to what I should invest in as far as water cooling, water cooling + peltier, or something else have at it! The past few days looking at this stuff has made me...

Do you actually have a problem with cooling? Have you considered just a few extra fans in the machine for airflow?
e.g. in all of our tower servers I have installed a large fan between the dual hard-disks that pulls air in through the front grill, and then the big bad-ass fan at the back of the case blows it all out...

Right, now I don't have a problem with cooling, however, when I unlock my chip and overclock it, I will... see the thing is I am running my rig with its case off so it gets better air flow, but its loud and noisy, main reason I want to goto water.

Anyone have any further suggestions? I turned off my pc yesterday and the room was almost complete silence, opposed to its most likely 60 decibels of noise.

i've heard of a unit you put on the roof of your case and it acts like a fridge cooling the whole box down ....
