Default How does this WC Setup rate?

hey guys, im currently looking to go from air cooling to water. I have seached around, and i like this one. Are there any reviews on it? It will be on a socket 939 AMD X2 3800+.

Very poorly. Get highend air... or quality water. Nothing in between is worth it.

Well, i was running 29-31 idle and 42-46 load with stock heatsink. I just wanted something to keep that load down. I was also thinking about the TT120....but its huge! I have about $120. maybe more to work with.

Anything other than cases made by Thermaltake is junk. The TT is big, but it'll get temps that that TT WC will never see.

For $50 get a Turniq Tower. For water, spend $200ish for a quality setup. If you don't get good WC components, high-end air will match or beat it. I am at 24C idle (in a 23.5C room) and 34C load... with silent cooling. Temps will be even lower after some mods I will be doing.
