Thermaltake Aquarius II

Hi!
I would like some opinions and thoughts on the aquarius II. I know it doesn't seem as a hardcore pro config but since I want to make it cheap and easy the kit doesn't seem quite good. Anyway speak out!

It has been discussed upon in the 'cooling news' subforums.
The fan is only 80x80mm. I don't see how it would be better than an Alpha or a Swiftech HSF.
And the rest is hmmmmmm.. koolance level. Without the nice case.

For the price, you can build a much better system.

Those would keep the tubing from collapsing or kinking.

At first, I took a look at the Aquarius II and thought it looked nice.

Quiet cooling that could be ran on a normal PSU.

Then looking deeper, it isnt so good. As has been said you can make better for the price.

I suppose that it would be better as a starter kit, although if someone is that scared then watercooling might not be worth the worry.

Im prepared to do a lot of research to make my 1st project work. Hopefully my relations do manage to find the time to come over to the UK from the US and I might save some £'s or $'s
