I've been wanting to make the switch for a few years now but haven't got around to it. The recent
case mod linked from slashdot got me thinking about it in a big way. But the watercooling he used is quite expensive, and only seems to be easily available in Europe.
So the stuff in Una's guide form 2002 looks quite good. Cheap, and hopefully easily available. But I'm wondering if things have changed a lot in the past year.
[list=1][*]Is an escort core still enough to cool a Ge4, an Athlon1400XP+ and a regular ASUS chipset?[*]Is the advice to 'invent your own fittins' still good? Or are push fittings so widely available that they should be used?[*]Has anyone had any problems with the suggested equipment?[/list=1]
Any help or advice would be much appreciated. I'm very familiar with hardware, but haven't done any modding short of adding an extra fan before.
Oh, I should probably say that my main goal is noise reduction. Right now my computer drives me crazy while it's turned on!
