Watercooled PC Help Sought

[maserati3200gt]

Can anyone recommend a UK based company who can supply a watercooled pc readymade ?

Thanks Guys.

My advice would be to try to do-it-yourself. It's not really that difficult, so long as you are careful, and by selecting your own components you will be able to get improved performance, greater flexibility and more features at a lower overall price. All a box-shifter will do is get one of the off-the-shelf watercooling kits and bung that onto one of their standard-build PCs.

Try Scan Computers or Overclockers UK - both sell their own-brand machines with watercooling options and also watercooling parts.

If you can be patient I should be able to post up some links later. Why stop at watercooled when you can go chilled!

To be honest, unless your intention is for complete silence of megaoverclocking you can achieve a lot using quiet pc equipment and carefully choosing additional/replacement cooling parts for example www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/home

My own system is custom made (and 5 years old)

The latest swiftech kits are excelent for both performance and noise reduction.

As far as I know there are not many companys selling PC's with watercooling installed. You will be better off doing it yourself, as long as your sensible and take your time its an easy and safe job.

Quieter.

And I can overclock my 2.2gig A64 upto 3ghz!

I originally got my watercooling when I was running an old duron at silly high voltages.
Watercooling was made mostly by me, so it wasnt expensive at the time.

nah, Nitrogen cooled is where its at... Toms hardware overclocked to 5Ghz @ -190°C

I've always wanted a pc built in a perspex fishtank type of thing filled with that CFC liquid, backlit with cool subtle lighting... It would be whisper-quiet and quite pretty... one day I'll get a round tuit. Worth a thought though?

OK, so it's oil used in these examples, but I think the purple cfc stuff would look wicked... Lax Power for your PC!
