Right now I am working on rev. 2 of my current watercooled computer previous post of my wc comp

Im adding a waterblock to my northbridge, building a new res. changing my current fan confg, adding shrouds to my rad. adding UV cath., another mainfold. and possibly a maze3 i havent decided yet.

Im moving the HD to my mobo side. If it is water cooled It will be above my 92mm intake fan where my current res sits, if I aircool it, it will be in front of the 92

Im using a sinlge 40gig segate barracuda IV 7200RPM ata100 running winXP. This machine is used for games, and web surfing. The harddrive is warm to the touch.

A Harddrive block would cost me around 70+ dollars shipped. My Hardrive new cost me 85 dollars. Im planning on getting a serial ata HD when they are avialable next year.

So whats the verdict, should I geta wb for my hd or save my money for some other cooling addition, maybe a new ehiem pump?

Thanks
