if everyone said that, technology would never move on. im doing it because i can.

I think i have decided on my processor! Q8400S - 65w - 4mb l2 - 1333mhz - 2.66ghz. nice low power keeps the whole thing at 150W.

Thanks UKGouki

Do you guys think i need that 80mm fan on the front? would the 120mm on the rad give enough airflow?

Thanks for that eclipseaudio4 :P

I would try to stealth in a 120 if possible to keep the noise down. but I would recommend a fan unless you have the NB/SB underwater as well.

Update #4 - 31/7/09

I've changed the processor to an E8400. Cheaper and offers the same, if not better performance. I've now done a complete price list for everything i will need. Just realised i am missing electrical wire off the list. Oh well :P

Ok guys i need your opinions on tubing! I'm liking the idea of clear tubing with purple coolant and clear/uv blue anti-kink coils. i'm thinking about doing a purple lighting scheme for this project. If you have looked closely at my price list, you see i'm getting some high power purple LEDs. Do you think this combo will work for the tubing?

I am getting these coils:



^^ THat is clear coils with feser 1 red coolant and xspc clear/uv blue coils. I'm thinking that scheme would look good with purple LEDs and UV cathodes.
