Zalman Reserator 2 - are they woth it ?

[rampage]

i am looking at coolling my q6600 g0, and i am thinking of going water (again), i understand that a custom loop will out preform any kit water coolers but i rather have somthing that is easy to set up and move if need be and that is silent (i hate being able to hear my pc running)

so i have decided to think about getting the Zalman Reserator 2 WC kit and just cool the q6600 with it, do you think this kit will out preform air cooling ?(i currently have a thermalright ultra 120 installed)

i have read several reviews some are good and some are crap and i still can not make up my mind, what are your thoughts?

Its better to just use the money and build your own... Kits aren't good at all. Not worth the money or time you put in it.. IMO

see here a tst of cpu coolers, there is no zalman reserator 2 but they did include a zalman resorator xt

If you want silent and dont mind a bigger rad., why not look into automotive rads/heatercores. Im sure with some paint and a few fittings you could get the same effect as the reserator!

i must ask what is your goal with this kit? what components you want cooled?

an mcr220 with undervolted fans will yield good performance with nearly no noise.

have you had a look at the guides posted in this forum by eastcoasthandle + fitseries?
