Watercooling
 
I'm looking into getting a watercooling system. However I don't know much about it and was wondering are there any places on the web that install watercooling systems for pc's? Also would like to know can you fit a cooling system into a standard size case or do you need a full size case? Thanks and any help would be appreciated.

You can most definitely squeeze a quality H2O cooling system into a small case. Unaclocker is currently working on a project where he is watercooling a MicroATX case. I'm working on a project to watercool an equally small ATX case known as the Chilli Pro case. Here are two articles about small watercooling systems: http://www.procooling.com/articles/h...h_-_una_.shtml http://www.procooling.com/articles/h...-_page_2.shtml http://www.procooling.com/articles/h...er_lan_b.shtml http://www.procooling.com/articles/h..._-_joe__.shtml
Check those out. As far as buying pre-watercooled and modded cases, you can get them from Swiftech and overclock-watercool.

I have another question concerning the price. How much would a good quality watercoolin setup cost if you do it yourself? Would you recommend a rookie to put install it? thanks

It is fairly time consumming to go the DIY route, but the results are very rewarding in the end, and I promise you will learn more about watercooling, and have a better understanding of it if you DIY. If you went the route where you buy the Waterblock, and pump online then DIY the radiator and everything else you could put together a kick ass rig for about $120 or less.

I'm looking at going DIY as well, and would agree with the previous comments. I'm still kinda scared to go scewing around with water inside my pride and joy, but I figure I'll learn a fair bit, and the sense of achievement will be great! Not quite climbing Everest level, but it is an accomplishment, and I'll be proud of it.
