Advise for my first watter cooled system

[curtains8]

I am looking in to putting in a water cooling system into my computer that I do Video editing on, and I was wanting advise on how to get started, I did a little research and found this kit, do you think it would work for my needs, what do I need to go along with this..http://www.xoxide.com/thermaltake-aquabay-m5.html

Thanks

You would need a radiator and a cpu block and tubing and clamps ..............
You're not going to find anyone here that would reccomend that Thermaltake setup.

The XSPC Rasa Kits are generally reccomended for beginners

But you should first spend a bit of time do some more research by reading the guides in the sticky at the top of the page.

That thermaltake pump isn't that super...if you are looking for a budget build, you can go with Jingway pumps. (there's another brand that is also pretty cheap, but I can't remember their name).

The XSPC Rasa RS240 kit is excellent for first timers doing a CPU-only loop.

Those kits com with everything I would need right?, I'm sorry if this is an obvious question, but I'm new to water cooling, Were does the radiator go in or on top of the computer?

The kits come with everything but fluid.
The rad mount is determined by your case and preference.
Again, please take some time reading the sticky, or just click one of the links in rubix's sig, you'll find build logs that may help give you an idea of what you will be able to do.

I tried to put together a collection of links and info that we've simply been pointing people to for quite a while. And yeah...you can get an idea of what you'll need to do by reading a few build logs or going through the stickies...it's what they are there for.
