Hi i have done a lot of research on this forum and many others. I have literally scored the internet and am back here. So i just want your opinions as to what parts to get to watercool just a q6600. I know that i want a black ice series 240mm radiator for sure. and 1/2 " tygon tubing. I want the whole setup to cost within £150. lower is better. Any ideas? Any pointers to where to buy from (in uk) would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys

How about this? will it let my G0 q6600 reach 3.6ghz?

It's not necessary for q6600@3.6ghz. Everyone runs it at that speed with a decent air cooler. I get 58C max load on 3.6ghz, and 69C on 4ghz.
