I think you will be vey happy with it, BUT it depends on what you are trying to do. If you have a celeron and Alpha or Swiftech with a 80 cfm fan on it, you will not see a big temp drop. If you are upgrading from a stock HS and fan and you stick 2 big Deltas 120 mm fans on your core you will not be getting a quiter system. If you like to overclock a little(or a LOT) water is the way to go--if you want a super quite system , water is the way to go. Look at the rankings on http://www.overclockers.com/ and you see a Koolance system beats 90% or better air cool systems and the ones it don't are way Louder. (koolance w/apprx 1/4 id hose and 15 to 17 GPH punps(ain't good at conveting 1030cc per min to GPH)).
Yes and welcome to the forum.
