I thouroughly recommend the Koolance Exos Liquid cooling kit. It Rulz. I av the a XP3000 and on air cooling idle = 48 and max load = 58. With EXOS: idle = 37 and max load = 44.
OH YEAH and the EXOS temps are with an overclocked XP3000 (2.34Ghz). Air temps were with default setting of 2.17Ghz.
So thats a BIG difference, and im gonna continue to clock the processor. GET AN EXOS

If you DIY 1 it would've been probably soo much better if you spent the same amount of money probably you would've had enough to get a GPU block as well. So I hate ALL liquid cooling kits.

dude i get 29*C idle/ 33*C load on my Athlon 2200 @ 1950Mhz with a Danger Den Maze3, Eheim 1250 pump and Buick heater-core which cost me half the price of your shitty Koolance exos system

HAHA, you know it's bad when people are still laughing at your temps a month later.

Is the Koolance Exos really that bad?

SLK900U with my Tornado on 5V 2600RPM on a 2.4C overclocked to 3.3G at room temperature of 28C(that's pretty damn hot) the CPU at idle's about 29C and full load it's about 43C, i removed both side panels and the top of my case and i got heck a lot of casefans blowing int he case. The noise level is acceptable right now, if i turn all the way up to 12V i can knock about 8C full load off.

dude I'm sorry but I've got a hard time believing those idle temps, unless you really do have a large handfull of fans blowing in there (like 10 of em)

Also none of the fans have fan-guard except the Tornado on my SLK900U because my finger's been in there once and it didn't feel too good and blood kinda splattered on my heatsink, and a little on the motherboard.
