Asetek WaterChill Xternal Cooling System 03-L-7002 CPU/Chipset/VGA Cooling

Advantages: small, cheap, fast
Disadvantages: hard to work on, gets too hot, noisy

...at what is available on the market, I have settled for the SS51G. It is not the newest Shuttle on the market but it is still well priced and fast. When Intel Northwood CPU prices started to come down in price, a very fast Intel processor in it with the fastest RAM was chosen. In the end my processor was £170 but this was nearly 18 months ago. This is a great system for portability and economy! It is economical becuase of a large amount of components are onboard and so it also makes it a little easier in chosing the right parts. It is possible to buy a carry case for it and other bits for it. I have stuck only to the carry case so I am not able to comment on how well the other bits work with the SS51G The Specs: * CPU support: Socket 478-based Intel Pentium 4 * Form factor: Flex ATX * Chipset: SiS 651/962L * North bridge: SiS 651...

Advantages: 133MHz FSB support, 1/2 AGP divider, stable, inexpensive
Disadvantages: Performance not up to overclocked BX solution

...I would like to share my experiences of the Abit VT6X4 slot 1 motherboard and its VIA Apollo Pro 133A chipset. In the past I have always used boards with an Intel chipset in my own machines. As my PC is important for work and study as well as for play, stability has always been an influencing factor. With the VT6X4, Abit have implemented stability in the VIA chipset. The CPU I am using is a Slot 1 Intel Pentium 3 733MHz (133MHz FSB) chip, which I picked up second hand very inexpensively as an upgrade to my Celeron 366 (overclocked to 550). The P3 is a fast and stable chip - it runs pretty cool for a 733MHz CPU. The VIA chipset is not the fastest solution available; those who lust for those extra frames per second in Quake 3 should consider an overclocked Intel BX chipset solution - the BX chipset doesn't support a 1/2 AGP divider...

Advantages: Cools Your CPU, alerts you to low water level
Disadvantages: Doesnt Cool Video Card or Chipset

...I've been using this watercooler for 4 months now and i'm really pleased with it, does a very good job in cooling your processor, if you want to cool your grahpics card and chipset you'll have to add extra heatsinks and piping i would reccommend having a big case if wanting to cool more than just the cpu. This kit is very easy to put together also comes in attractive packaging. for the price you pay you wont regret, it must be the cheapest watercooler out it supports all AMD motherboard sockets, comes with 2 metres of tubing 500ml of coolant. if alerts you when you have low water level and turns your pc off i recommend this to anyone who's on a budget and wants to go watercooling...
