Thinking of water cooling my condensor in my phase change setup.. It will take MUCH fan power to cool it down.. to much noise for me..

Any suggestions on how I should water cool would be nice.. I am thinking of just using a bucket.. maybe 2 5 gallons or something and having the grill sit right in the water.. but it does get quite hot when the evaporator is under load..

The thing is.. once I finally put this setup on my machine.. the frige will NEVER turn off.. if it does.. I am going to let it sit and cool the water down to below 20F before I turn my machine on.. when I turn my PC off.. the frige stays on.. so I expect water temps when I wake up in the morning to be very close if not below 0F.

As long as the water stays cold.. the evaporator can handle it and the condensor grill doesn't get hot.
