Everyone, post some water cooling systems that you know of for at least Athlon XP.
I'm considering buying a water cooling system, so that I can overclock higher, and so my room doesn't get so hot in an hour.
I was at Fry's last night, and I saw a Corsair HydroCool 200 system and it was pretty slick.
Does anyone else have any suggestions on water cooling systems or testimonials?

I've read reviews for the Corsair HydroCool and that thing is crap!

After much reading I came to the conclusion the best water cooling 'box' (all in one thingy ready for you like the Corsair HydroCrap) was Koolance's solution.
You can get it built into a case:

How about Asetek's WaterChill or the ThermalTake Aquarius III? I saw some reviews on them earlier somewhere but I don't recall if they were good or not... :\

Agissi: I hope the rest of the forums know that Tom's and [H] are very unreliable places to get information from, as they both get paid to make good reviews.
The best water coolins box is one you make yourself. I have heard good things about the WaterChill, but the Aquarius is a very entry-level WC'ing kit, cools about the same as an SLK-800.
