I might normally agree, however, I'm running a dual AMD system, and the northbridge does indeed get very hot. Right now it's just got a heatsink on it, but it really needs at least a fan. But that brings me to my goal for water cooling which is...
Quiet. Right now there are at least 7 fans in this thing. I thought my old PC was loud, but now it's nothing compared to this new one. If I can get as much heat as possible out of the case using the water system, that's less fans I need and I can turn down the speed on those that I will still have.
I'm not going for OC, just an efficient cooling system. The more efficient the better.
