Hello guys. I am planning to add this cooling unit H20-120™ REV. 3 SERIES LIQUID COOLING KIT by www.swiftnets.com to my ASUS P4C800 D M.B. Since this will be my first water project. I am looking for some exp. opinion. I am planning to put the radbox on the kit and run two of the raditors. Here is my case I hope that helps to give you a better picture of what I have Lian-Li PC-6089A. Thank you for your time and help in advance.

You know what? I usually bash kits as wastes of money, but depending on the price this one has merit. My suggestions as this:

Don't buy the kit! How do you like that?

What you want to do is buy the MCW6002 (great block) and possibly the MCP350 (only 3/8" barbs). I would recommend going with the via aqua or mag3 pond pumps ~$40 US each or less. The MAG3 has 1/2" barbs. Go to an auto supply store and buy a heater core...I believe the one you want is the '86 chevette or toyota corolla. You will likely have to sweat on barb connectors to attach your tubing. Make sure you add a shrouded 120mm fan to the heatercore.

This will provide you with a syatem YOU put together as opposed to a ready made kit and will cost way less! My $0.02...

I take your $0.02 to heart. Now off to do some reseach on mag3. Auto supply to check on a '86 Chev or the yoto part. If you have any more pointers let me know.
Thank you for your time and help.
