water cooling is only air cooling done differently.. its only real advantage is u can use a far bigger radiator and big fat pipes to shift the heat from the cpu to the radiator.. where it eventually gets cooled by air.. he he

if u dont have the big fat pipes and the big rad.. water cooling aint worth a wotsit.. but either way u cant cool cooler than the temp of the air doing the cooling..

why else would infared take his computer out in the garden in the middle of winter... he he

I'm going for watercooling soon. Gonna get the swiftech storm waterblock, NB block, GPU block and a decent pump, a radiator from an air conditioning unit to be placed externally. It'l be awsome.

There is a scrap yard around here that has TONS of copper loop aluminum fin coolers. There are some that have twin 1/4 copper loops in the same uint. Split after the pump to run one 1/4 to the CPU, the other to the GPU then NB.

Hell yes.

My sensor is reporting that my processor is two or three degrees celsius above the ambient temp. of the room (not the motherboard sensor). Is that possible or is the sensor off?

It's a northwood core.

i have an old 1.7ghz and i cut the heatsink off it.. the heatsink is copper but they coat it in nickle. im wanting to make a new one thats jsut copper, wounder if that will help it cool easier? far as i can tell only reason for the heatsink on it is to prevent poeple from scratching the silicon chip.is that gasket thats on it some thermal compound? or just rubber. btw, mines an intel
