I used to have a vapochill case, never 100% reliable and you can a add a minute to your boot times, also I thought it hindered upgrades somewhat as I never found the mount for 775 socket so it got sold.

If your using the latest processors you could be disappointed...like the vapochills they just aren't geared up to take the heat of the latest processors.

$300 should be the pointer....you only get what you pay for......

That was their goal. Phase Change for the average person. At $300 it's a good deal. the temps aren't as low as other phase change units but still sub-zero.

It seems to me that the most important part of an extreme cooling system is not how cold it can get but the quantity of heat it can remove. Sure you might be able to cool your 65W dual-core AMD processor down to -30C but what happens when you plug a 145W phenom II in? I'd also rather have temps stay at around 2C to eliminate any possibility of condensation.
