Once was building a high end system with water cooling. THe cutomer bought the gigabyte 3d mercury casing
The water cooling system is the 3d galaxy from gigabyte. The package includes 2 bottles of coolant, and one waterblock for graphics card.

When installing, we pour for a few secs, then turn it on. The reason is that the system will not turn on until the water cooling system detects that the reserviour is 80 percent full or sth liddat. It will keep beeping and beeping until the mininum water level is reached.

After that need to check for leaks, very time consuming as the customer also bought the saphire atomic water cooled 4870x2. the pipes also must put properly, cannot bend etc

I would like to buy but not so sure about the water cooling and stuff...

I just wanna ask:

I'm building this inexpensive 'gaming' PC, able to handle most games. I'm reusing an old ATX chassis and SATA HDD, so I came up with this set-up (Sub $500)

ASUS M2N68-VM

AMD Athlon X2 7750 Black Edition

4GB Dual Channel Kingstion DDR2-800

inno3D GeForce 9500GT

iCute PSU 420W

You can see I'm on a tight budget here, so no aftermarket fan, bells and whistles. I'm going to do a bit of Overclocking here and there. Any improvements I could make? I want to keep it as low as I can.

but sure for fan right?

but sure for fan right?

Fan use the stock boxed one. Frankly, I never knew they came with fans, seeing as all the AMD systems I repaired previously used those 'el cheapo' non standard fans. I feel stock fans have more than enough cooling capacity. The proc i'm considering has a hefty 95W TDP, but I'm sure its fine.
