| Performed Mods: | nothing impressive, some wire management and a couple of hours to OC the system. |
| It's a upgraded version of my current rig, change the exhaust side panel fan for intake, also change the standard black 120mm fan for a 120mm blue led. the PC runs quite cool, but are kinda noisy too, but since I use it on my little bussiness, I can barely hear It on a work day. Hope you like it. oh!, and I'm almost forgot, this rig was made in MEXICO. | |

Why?, It's 'cause I bought the Aquagate S1 (if I recall right) but the store runed out of stock and they weren't sure if It will be on sotock again, so for the price of that cooler they changed It for the Duo Viva.....a shame that I didn't buy anything better, but since It's my first WC kit and at that time I had a tight budget...I think It was a correct choice.
This WC kit performs a little better than my past HyperTX2 air cooler.

anyway, keep telling your dad 'till he tires of you or buy it yourself, It's not that expensive this model, I saw It on newegg for 70 bucks.....here in Mexico all are more expensive so I paid for It 110 bucks 6 months ago.
