Just ordered stuff for my first WC rig:

AquaXtreme 50Z-DC12 w/ 1/2" barbs
Swiftech MCW6002-64
ClearFlex 60 tubing
Danger Den fillport
Arctic Silver 5
4x Panaflo 120mm M1A fans
Weapon 302 dual 120mm shroud
Weapon 302 unpainted heatercore

I plan on getting the distilled water, Zerex, "T" barb, and clamps locally. I think that should be all I need. It will be cooling this:

MSI K8N Neo Platinum
Athlon 64 (Newcastle) 3200+ (not OC'ed right now)
1GB generic Samsung PC3200 3-3-3-8 RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB
80GB & 160GB Maxtor 7200RPM IDE drives
NEC 3500A DVD+/-RW-DL writer

Inside a generic mid-tower Chenbro case right now, but I am going to trade with a buddy for his tower case.

Can't wait to post pics after I get it done. Should be fun!
 
Here's a short update.

Got the Zerex (std. antifreeze solution), "T" barb and clamps the other day.

I picked up the CoolerMaster Stacker today, to house my WC rig. My wife is going to sh*t when I get home with it, I think. Ah well, better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission, right? :D

Also, I replaced the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB with a BFG Tech GeForce 6800 GT OC. It's sweet.

Only thing I'm waiting on now is the shroud from Weapon, which should be shipping out today.

I decided to mod my own core instead of getting one from Weapon. Gonna stop by the auto parts store on my way home and get the '77 Bonneville w/ AC heatercore. Haven't decided yet whether to just cut off the pipe ends and attach directly to them or to remove them completely and install barbs. Right now I'm leaning towards taking the easier route and attaching directly to the chopped off pipes.

Picked up a brand new Antec NeoPower 480 to go in the CM Stacker, as well. If I have problems with it running everything in my system, I can always plop in a 2nd power supply (I love this case!) to run the pump.

I should have everything up and running in the next couple days. I will update with pictures in a couple of days.
 
thats all i did with my HC. didn't leek and 1/2 id clearflex was nice a tight. I don't think having 4 fans will make that much of a difference for ya, but i hope you have a fan controller. Hope to see some pics when your done.

i need to find a place to host some of my pics, but im too lazy to go find one, or else i would show you mine.
 
Nice that you got what you want....life is too short to screw around :D

Ah well, better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission, right?

Depends on whether your spouse is a good shot or not ;)
