Talking Just a wild idea that might work

i have been looking at watercooling for a few week and i thought about using this
http://www.aquatics-online.co.uk/cat...nditioners.asp
the water flow is too fast for it to build temps up too fast and rather than not knowing what the water temps are running at by it changing through the room temp etc you can just program in what temp you want the water to be and done
do you think this would be any good?
what would be better coolant or distilled water?

Distilled water would be the best as it is none-conductive (it is 100% pure water and you have to have something in the water like an electrolyte for it to conduct electricity).

For the price of that thing you could most likely go with a phase change system which would get you seb-zero temps.

but the cooler is nice and compact easier whereas the phase changer needs to be lying down and takes up abit of room and you ant control the water temps

A lot of guys use salt water tank chillers on their rig's. You just have to make sure you get one with large enough compressor that it can handle your heat load, you can get down to 0C or less with most of them. You need ot condensation proof your board, blocks, tubing and all that good stuff, it's really pretty easy...Modified 1/5 HP Chiller

What do you think these things are? They are phase units designed for water chilling (hint: refrigerant R134a). A custom phase unit for PCs would be cheaper and work better.

It fits right under you PC and is the size of a typical PC length and width wise, just not nearly as tall. You sit your PC on top of it. It takes up very little room + you get sub-zero.
