I recently got a gtx 470 for 60 bucks and it has a koolance waterblock on it..
My rig doesnt have water cooling... So i was wondering should i buy a Accelero Twin Turbo II or Use a close loop water cooling system.. i Wonder how the loop would be done..
Thanks
 
Solution
To build a custom loop to accommodate it would cost ~$200 for one that's easily expandable to your CPU later on.

Whether you want to spend that much on a custom loop is up to you, the other option I can see is to stick an aftermarket heatsink like the aforementioned Twin Turbo on. Wouldn't bother with the CLC liquid options.
