I wish I would have done a little more research in this field before jumping into it head first!

Well the setup I'm getting comes with a tiny rio. I suppose I could stick with it from the start. Thing is, I plan on doing a ful blown modded case throughout the summer (painting inside, out, lights etc... and seeing as water takes room, I'd like to know what I'm dealing with up front, instead of switching to something else (say new pump halfway through.

Rio. Alright, I'll look into them. that is much more within my price range!

I assume they have inline pumps then? I guess I'll find out. I'm definately just starting w/ cpu waterblock. I was just saying that eventually if I like it....

Not Winnipeg... try Ontario.. a good 9-10 hours north of the Can/US border.

My main goal is dual purposed: Better cooling, but moreso LESS NOISE!!! I'm so tired of my Alpha PAL 6035 and 7krpm fan w/ the other 10 fans in my case.... Also, the look of watercooling, when done right and well thought out is appealing to me as well. I'm looking for a neat, clean setup.

Basically, if I can get my 1.33 AXIA up to 1.6 stable (1544 right now) and have a much quieter, yet still portable PC in the mean time... my dreams will have come true! LoL.

I realise with water, my pc will gain weight - and that is fine, within reason. I don't need to break my back over a LAN party!
I have considered unusual cases, but not for my main rig. Plus I just got this case in to replace the identicle one I'd sold before it.

Cyco...
I think so too. I guess it would be hard to make an 'apples to apples comparison.' It looks much better too as far as I'm concerned. But this Aqua will have to do. Speaking of looks, I suppose you could paint the rad if I used the right paint... hrmm...
