Watercooling
Has anybody used Watercooling? The UK sun has decided to turn my PC off 3 times today due to heat so ive been eyeing up some kit (And to give me something to do of course).
Any recommendations for kits? Have you had any bad experiences? What are your temps before/after? Any information appreciated

Thanks alot Pasty, I was under the impression you'd gone ahead already and bought your water setup. That's about how much i'm willing to pay though, but i've been looking at the Vapochill version (Waterchill) for Pentium 4 at £150 from Overclockers.co.uk as it's got good reviews (Max 31C for a Pentium 4 3GHz which is what mine is; also its upgradeable for other chips in the future).
Thanks for the links
