QUOTE(davidletterboyz @ Dec 5 2006, 11:51 AM) But all three of u never try the unit before right? I have tried the 120mm version bcos i bought it at a cheap price. I have to say it worths the price i paid...but if i were to buy it at RM250+, maybe it doesnt worth as much. No, it doesnt match the real w/c kit, but u can't get a real w/c kit at that price anyways. It's priced in between of highend HSF and lowend w/c kit. Hope this info can guide the threadstarter.  I've used the 120MM version before, and the performance are just a lil' bit better compared to Bigwater SE... Used it for only a month, not satisfied with it, sold it my friend, then using XP120 with vantec spectrum 120MM UVled fan which performs just a lil' bit better and more hassle free compared WC...

No, u can't claim the other parts that got faulty because the WC leaking from the WC manufacturer... The warranty for the mobo? It depend on how "faulty" the board is... If there is a burn mark, then, just say bye bye liao...

If some water dropped on the motheboard, there's a possibility that it'll produce some short circuit, then, you'll get you'reself a burned mark on the motherboard... It depend on you're luck la... If there's no burned mark and no water droplet can be seen on the motherboard, then you can still claim the manufacturing warranty from the motherboard manufacturer... The thing is, if you're afraid of WC leaking, then don't go for WC it's just that simple

I don't give advice blindly mind you The same thing with what i've experience when i'm using that CM Aquagate 120MM... Conclusion: CM Aquagate sucks!!! Don't even bother using it or buying it...

Maybe it's their quality being inconsistent... However, i wouldn't trust that piece of watercooling, it's too simple... Those swiftech watercooling products are true watercooling products too me...

Im also using CM WC kit Here. Ive got good performance with it. For me its really worth buying. My 2600 TB is at 36 Idle and 46 Full load. Improvement with my current Heatsink Temp 50 Idle and 62C Full load. At least my room felt cooler since I dont use air conditioning. And the best of all is its neatness. Since all the item is intergrated, therefore my casing look really tidy and neat.

Don't compare that big aquagate with the aquagate mini liao... Offcourse those big aquagate can pawn those aircooling heatsink, but we're here discussing about those mini aquagate that is pure loser to my XP120 This post has been edited by sHawTY: Jan 10 2007, 08:56 PM

man...wats all this hatred going on...we need some peace in the world.... (borak style) pause pasue..... not....  the cm aquagate mini 80cm is crap but the 120mm version is ok if u really want it or u have cash to burn. but other than that a nice hsf will kill pwn it.... i use to have a 1220mm version..performed admirably untill i started playing with the sexy heatpipes of TR .... but now i went back to wc , big time with swiftech stuffs.... neway if u really want it i can get it , performance is OK only.
