Okay I am working on a project that all started with the kingwin liquid cooler that works like pieces of ass.

My motherboard is EVGA SLI. This is my biggest problem because fancy air heatsinks doesn't fit this mobo unless if I buy kit(I have the plastic screws..god I hate them so freaken much).

I would like to have a much BETTER liquid cooling system with a decent reservoir. Right now I have a bunch of tubes(serves as the kingwin secondary reservoir) and the radiator connected to a dorm refrigerator (the freezer compartment). Cooling is decent.but not great. I think it's because the cpu block is not as tight as it can be (I pinned it myself...don't ask me how..long story). Temp reading from Myguard is 35c idle, 55 load. Ambient temp is 75F. Case temp is 38c.

So I am looking for somethign that is a kit. Budget is 200 of so.

Thanks!
 
Sounds like something I woudl buy.

Will the waterblock fit my motherboard?(can handle the plastic screws?)
