thanks for your reply sniper, at least i know that not many using aquagate, so maybe i will consider something else.
edit : just found out the aquagate price is RM720, Holy Crap, i dont afford that much.

metalzone, the prescott is very hot indeed.
i am getting 60 with Coolermaster hyper 6 + vantec tornado. oouch...
I was actually the WC-202 as i might replace the default fan for the external radiator and use my tornado.
so for me if the water cooler can reduce 5 degree is enough for me i will say. i am at the border line actually.
and the worst come worst i will just use the cooler for my display card.

budget is RM400 - RM500.
I am trying if i can equip everything inside the case. i am interested with GPU water cooling as well. Do you think the cooler you have with some modification like bigger radioter can do a trick ?
and sniper, i have read the review of the mini, they are priced around RM250. But i doubt they can do better then WC-202.
about custom set, i worried about the leak. i will going to low yat this sunday, maybe i will go around and see if there is any custom set.

AllnGap Thanks very much :0
i agree with your theory, it's way to thick and wont release much heat into the water. the contact surface between water and the block is not enough also. 1/2 already taken by arcylic.
Anyway i think my processor at 3.9 @ 1.367V is reasonable to get that temp with this entry level water cooling kit.
it's ok, i admire the sound level as before this i was using 2 X 80mm tornado which ears still can hear the sound.
