I am selling my watercooling stuff, and I am also selling the case as well.

Case is an Antec SOHO SX1030b. Prolly one of the most popular computer cases of all time. Lower HD rack removed for radiator. Has window and top blowhole, great airflow. $100 OBO

Watercooling kit, complete. Comes with a Dtek Spir@l Waterblock (AMD), Chevette Heatercore silver painted, shroud, Panaflo 120mm fan, AquaVia 1300 Pump, T-fitting, metal screw-type hose clamps, I'll throw in some Purple Ice and dye as well. I've spend well over $200 on this setup, asking $120 OBO.

you know that lian-li works great for a small watercooling setup, i mean, nothing as big as mine, but I bet you could make it work

I know, I need to sell the watercooling and/or the case for the new case. Just want to go aluminum now, and then prolly build another setup later.

i have my rad on the outside of the case on the back of the psu. i didnt see the point in having the heat from the rad go into the case, whats the point of watercooling if you do?

How much better is water cooling as opposed to air cooling? Is there that much of a difference?

A lot. It allowed me to run a 700MHz overclock and keep my temperatures under 40*c no matter what I was doing, when. It could be middle of night, middle of day. 70* inside my room or 85*.

Right now, as I sit, my processor is at 47*c idle with a half-decent air cooler. My usual temps would be 14*c less than this.
