Hey, I'm looking into water cooling my PC, and wanted to know if anyone had ventured into this realm of PC modding before. I was looking at the Zalman Reserator 2, which is silent and effective. Size doesn't bother me. I don't want something so loud it keeps me awake at night.

I was thinking about the Koolance Exos 2, but I'm liking the Zalman better, both in looks, sound, and shape of the unit. The Exos 2 wouldn't fit in my setup very well.

This Zalman system cools both the GPU and CPU, and I may buy a northbridge chipset water block too.

CPU: Athlon 64 X2 4800+
mobo: DFI LanParty UT SLI DR
GPU: nVidia 8600GTS

Any thoughts, comments, recommendations, etc? I'm new to water cooling, so I'm not sure which system is best, what to look for, etc.

Thanks.
