I'm going to be running a E4300 overclock, right now I have a coolermaster aquagate system for the processor only.. I was wanting to limit the fans as much as possible, so I've been interested in putting my northbridge/videocard on a passive loop... is it possible to do a passive system which can sustain video overclocks? .. possibly a large oil cooler/heater core mounted on the side of the case externally.
 
The Cape Cora Passive rad system is great if you know how to set it up properly.
 
isn't that system insanely expensive? like 300 dollars?

It's not that bad... A silver 642 radiator is about 70$ shipped from FrozenCPU.

The reserator series is closer to 200$...

Add in a pump and a TDX... Maybe a Maze 4 block and you're up to about 200$ I wouldn't go over a single 7900 GPU (or similar) on it though.

No need for a res either, those rads hold alot of liquid. Just be careful not to leave out the anti-corrosive additive ;)
