just put the gear in the oil and then put the whole thing in a free standing freezer. No condensation worrys, and you can overclock the bejesus out of the cpu

Did you boost the voltage on the ram a lot? Heat's a killer..

Wow that is a great barton overclock. My old 2500 would do 2.4ghz on air, but after that it was unstable ever after i raised the vcore and dimm volts. I almost order a vantec stingray water kit last night , but saw a danger den kit and now cant make up my mind. Is yours a custom water system or a kit? Any suggestions? 38
