I vote for 6. http://www.sharkyforums.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

NoiseControl Silverado HSF

But other than that I'd probably go for number 2. If I'm in the mode for watercooling.

the water cooling is pretty risky from what ive heard, one drop of condensation and boom.

I would go with watercooling but that's just me. It took a while (most of the day actually) to set up my water cooling setup but it was well worth it. My temps were amazing to say the least.

JuveDuke, condensation is only an issue when you deal with peltiers, not with standard water cooling.

At the time I built my water cooling rig, which was last month, it wasn't so hot so the idle temp was @ 31c (my room temp is quite warm) and max load was @ 35c. These temps are without my 8 case fans (if I did add those in, I'd imagine they would sink a few degrees).

Before watercooling, I idled at about 34-35c, and max load was around 44c.
