Default Gigabyte Galaxy 3D Reviews? Anyone Have any comments

Gigabyte 3D Galaxy II

Just was doing some online window shopping, considering whats next in my system.
Im debating between 22-24" LCD - 780i Mobo - or a water cooling setup...

All of which will be bought within the next 6 months, but havent quite decided what first.

Just looking for some feedback on a decent mid ranges water cooling setup..

thanx

Ju-ju-juuuunk.

1) weak pump
2) incorrect radiator design
3) restrictive tubing
4) waterblock has a fan
5) manifolds are bad

i just totally tore out the built in gigabyte system in my 3D Mercury. Im throwing in a completely custom loop for the gpu and the cpu. the gigabyte system did a decent job tho (q6600 b3 @ 457*7 for 6 months no maintenance). but id say go custom. just my $.02
