You would be better off just getting a highend HSF with only $100 to spend on WCing gear..
Or just save some more money and get enough for a nice rig. Don't go cheap on water cooling... http://www.petrastechshop.com/dfuv2uncpuwa.html $65 http://www.petrastechshop.com/swmcin12pu.html $85 http://www.petrastechshop.com/swmchire.html $20 http://www.dangerden.com/store/produ...&cat=85&page=1 $52 http://www.petrastechshop.com/7id5odmagepu.html $0.60 LFT http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/pa12mesp.html $28 for a pair Around $260

stay with your TRUE. You will not get a good water cooling system, even used, for under 100.00.

You can buy a piece and there till you get a loop together, the for sale thread here has a lot of good WC'ing parts for cheap at times..It might take a bit longer to get your gear together, but its worth it to get good parts, cheap WC'ing gear wont do any better then a HSF and most of it is so shoddily made that its a real danger to your rig...
Start doing a little research on WC'ing now and you will be better able to pick the best performing parts that suit your needs for a good price..If you build a decent rig you can push your OC... Here is a little starting point, be sure to read all the stickies here, there is a lot of good info in them... ..Water Cooling - In English ..Assembling your Custom Watercooling Setup ..D-Tek Fuzion install tip!

I agree with ira-k. From what I've seen, WC parts don't depreciate nearly as quickly as computer hardware. You can buy a decent part now with the $100, maybe a D5 Vario, and save for the rest.
