Swiftech are good, either their air coolers or water coolers. A bit Pricey though.

Yes, Swiftech has a waterblock kit with isolation and coldplate so you can easely install a peltier... I have it but it fried my CPU because the screws where way to long and I couldn't check if the coldplate was touching my CPU because of all isolation, so watch out with it.

My PC eats so much money that I'm in 'desperate' need of it to buy PC3500 RAM, help Svol with his OC project!
