Read the review, and decide for yourself. Google on "bigwater review", and read more.

It was my choice for the lowest priced decent watercooling kit.

Pros:
It came with everthing I need, and made for an easy and compact install. It cools as well as the noisiest air solution, in near silence. It's great for stock CPU speeds, and mild overclocking.

Cons:
Higher-priced kits and custom rigs will outperform it handily, and you will get very-little-to-no-respect from watercooling enthusiasts. It's like showing up at a hot rod club in a Hyundai Azera.

Free advice--your money refunded if not completely satisfied. If you get it, I can give you some hints and tweaks. If you decide you want to cool your GPU as well, do not get the ThermalTake GPU waterblock--the CPU waterblock has worked fine for me, but the GPU block has a flimsy, cheesy mount.

Hope this helps--the rep button is on the lower left. Gotta go--I'm late for my skinny-tube kit support group.

The only trouble with a custom watercooling kit is ordering everything (placing several orders), and getting your instructions on hooking everything up off the internet. But, the watercooling guide takes care of alot of that, and you save alot of money. But you do spend more time on the custom. If you buy a kit and want it better than good air cooling, you're going to end up spending $180-$200.

I think you would more happy with this kite here to start off with and you can add better blocks as you go. The CPU block realy works well. I have one here and the same Radiador that I no longer need. You can't beat the price
