ok so i just ordered online the cooler in this link http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/cpu-liquid-cooler/masterliquid-lite-120/



since this is my first ever water liquid cooler only ever owned air coolers i have a few questions



#1 how well will this cool an overclocked QX6850 socket 775 cpu overclocked between 4.0-4.5GHz info on my cpu can be found below

http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_2/Intel-Core 2 Extreme QX6850 HH80562XJ0808M (BX80562QX6850).html



#2 is it possible to add a second fan to this cooler since it only comes with one and if so where can i buy the parts i.e. screws and the like



#3 lastly what else should i know or expect during first time power up and usage dont wanna panic and do something to the cpu cooler that might be normal

1. It will able to somewhat cool the stock CPU. No chance for an overclocked one under load. Your CPU is 130w at stock and it's a 120mm AiO - read very basic. not everything that has the word liquid in it does a good job. For about the same money, you could get a much more capable air cooler that would cool much better at lower noise.
2. yes, it's possible to add second fan, but it's pointless waste of money on thin radiators. to see some benefit rad should be over 40mm thick.
3. install the rad as intake (pulling fresh air from the outside) with tubes down.
