Hi Soar,Although I have done a lot of research I haven't felt brave enough to dip my toe into the water, so I don't think I am the best person to offer practical advice on this subject.However, when I have asked others, such as DM and Gilganesh there advice has been to start with a basic kit such as this: http://www.specialtech.co.uk/spshop/customer/XSPC-Rasa-750-RS240-WaterCooling-Kit-pid-12137.html which contains everything except the liquid. Although this liink is for a site in the UK I'm sure similar kits can be found on your side of the pond and they will probably be a lot cheaper too.I'm sure DM will step in and offer some better ideas as he is braver than me when it comes to mixing water and electricity!
