Hey guys. So I have not posted on Tom's for quite a while now. Since I built my computer about a year and a half ago I'm now ready to OC and Water cool. The OCing I think I can figure out, as there are loads of i7 OC guids out there now. But when it comes to water cooling, I'm having a somehwat rough time figuring out exactly what I need. I have spent a few hours reading guides but I'll admit no more than that. I'm pretty good at putting things together and what not so if I have to mod I'm definitely down to try.
So far the only thing I have really decided is the reservoir. Simply because of the looks. no other res looks like this one. Its the Liquid Fusion one on frozencpu. First of all I had a question about it. Is it even good? It's expensive yes and nice looking yes, which is why its most popular, but how does it really compare?

Now I know it looks like I have not read much but I do not really plan to get this going for a while. I'm going to start slowly buying parts and have this built by june at the latest. (Bday in june so I'll most likely save the most expensive part till then)
Also I read that you should pick your radiator first but I wanted to see what people said about this res. Once I get a few replies here I'll add in the next parts.
Thanks a lot for your time and help guys!!!
PS - If anything I put up here is, not good, or old or something like that. Call me out!!! I don't want to get stuck with a dumpy setup or something that is getting upgraded a month after I get mine running.
