This will be a much easier way to go, this will suit anywhere between light and heavy over clocking temps.

That fit would be fine, but i would definitely change the fans...
Maybe Corsair SP120's or Akasa Viper S-Flows...

Or you could get a Corsair H80i... for around £75... (probably better cooling too)

Corsair, provides support up to 4 pwm fans and a software link from the cpu block to the usb 2.0 header on your motherboard to control it via your desktop interference. I would fully recommend these. I have a kraken x60 which is the same thing (just bigger fans) and my temperature of my cpu (AMD 8350) never exceeds 33.3 degrees C (unless running a game), but yes these will keep your CPU much cooler then that kit.

Besides all of the facts he mentioned above, it also uses a non-conductive liquid instead of distilled water, so if it was to leak (not saying it will), but if it happens to leak it will NOT ruin your components, and you can just whip it up and send it back. (Little Peace of Mind).

Would you kindly let me know how you found this out?
I have found this information on the coolant, but doesn't say anything about being non-conductive...
"Alphacool CKC is a specially developed coolant for PC watercooling systems. CKC is based on well-proven ingredients which were tested in industrial applications. This ensures maximum reliability and performance.

CKC contains a special copper anticorrosive and does not contain Ethylene glycol, Ethandiol or other additives, offers the full thermal capacity of water and suppresses Algae and bacteria growth. It also contains additional inhibitors against corrosion.

Alphacool does not use the standard anti-freeze ingredients which reduce the thermal capacity of the coolant but my be mixed with those. Coolants based on antifreeze require 25& antifreeze content to suppress algae and bacteria growth which lowers the thermal capacity.

CKC is compatible with copper, brass, platings such as nickel, chrome, anodized Aluminum, Plexiglas (PMMA), POM and plastics for pump casings such asPPS-GF40 (Laing DDC ® amongst others) as well as PUR-, PVC- Tygon® and Masterkleer® tubing.

Features and safety instructions Alphacool CKC:
- non-odorous and transparent , non-irritant
- Requires no hazard declaration
- Exempt from labelling regulations according to EG regulations/ GefStoffV
- The usual safety precautions when handling chemical substances must be followed
. Non-flammable, not self-combustive, not explosive
- Biologically degradable, not harmful to the environment
- S-phrases:
S2 Keep out of the reach of children
S20 When using do not eat or drink

Extent of delivery:
1000ml bottle of ready-to-use coolant with child safety cap"

EDIT: "Phoba's developer's years of experience in the watercooling sector have resulted in this mixture which features all the things one could ask for in a watercooling system: Corrosion protection, algae suppression, protection from disintegration of different metals as well as extremely low electrical conductivity. Of course plastics such as PVC, NBR, Acetal, Plexi etc. will not react with this concentrate. "

It states low electrical conductivity... not non.
It can still damage components (potentionally) but it is safer than distilled water...

I would not pour these liquid on my components and hope nothing is damaged.

Either way, H80i is more reliable.

When corsair first released the product they had a video on this product (h80i) on their site (I don't know if they still do or not), but they said, along with Kraken, that they have "sealed non-conductive liquid" in the closed loop water coolers, so when it spills, people won't have to worry about ruining $1,000's of dollars worth of computer components (they sounded cocky when they said that part). I have read many articles saying that non-conductive liquid is often used in manufactured closed liquid cooling loop systems (both manufactured and custom made) as this is the best "water-proof" as your going to get for your system. By the way next time you call me on something, please do it in a pm, not on someone's else's thread (where they are tying to get an answer, not hear an argument).
