Mcw-chill 452?

as close to the block as you can get it. But watch out for condensation if you cross the dew point.

Something like this is in my opinion "for an every now and then" boost in performance. And if inteded for 24/7 i think you should insulate.
 
It's a water chiller. It takes the place of a radiator in your primary cooling loop, but requires a secondary cooling loop with a radiator.
 
so i oculd have this setup just for my cpu loop, and then have the radiator do the gpu and northbridge?

EDIT: why would i need a second loop w/ a radiator at all?

You also need a separate power supply.

No... the second loop cools the chiller. You won't want that loop to also cool your GPU/NB because the water will be fairly hot.
 
i'm not going to buy the item, but i am just really curious. So would i just use a Y splitter... have 1 go to chill the chiller and the other to my computer parts?

No, run it inline, no splitting.
 
I've looked at athe MCW-Chill myself. 3 loops. One per pelt and one for the cpu. Course it'd be a hassle to power the pelts, pumps, etc. Plus the temps really drop you you'd want to insulate the tubing and the waterblock.
