            ok here is a cooling system i have been looking at..it cost 170$....i love the dual 120mm fans that come with it though i dont really need to worry about space.i have the old dragon server cases(old alienware case) its huge..let me know if its a good deal or if there is better for same or less price...here are the specs

            Features:
            1/2" (Tubing OD) combined with 330 GPH pump for optimal flow rate.
            Extreme performance water-bocks with patent pending Diamond-Pin Matrix?technology.
            Slim profile radiator assembly with dual 120mm fan, each rated at 55 CFM (25dBA) each. Radiator installation may require extensive case modifications.
            Pump and fill & leed assembly are pre-installed in a tray to fit into a 5 1/4" bay : no reservoir is needed, resulting in space saving, and uncluttered installation.
            Quick-connect fittings, for safe and expeditious installation
            Plug-and-play water-block installation, doesn't require removing the motherboard
            Pump relay switch to couple the pump operations to computer power-supply.

              Well those parts look ok, though I do worry about small pumps (size of, not flow rate), but what about the water block and are ya goin' to cool the GPU as well? :?:

                Well for under $150 dollars I would do:
                Mag3 (with propellor mod, you must do this)
                Tubing
                Dtek WhiteWater block
                Dtek Procore radiator with shroud
                Swiftech relay
                If you want a GPU block
                Maze4 GPU block or Maze3, up to you.

                Also, DO NOT GET THE SWIFTECH KIT. The new one is better, but still not as good as mentioned above.
