i have never WC'd before and i was thinking about getting a prebuilt ac case....is this worth it? anyone out there got one of them?
 
You mean the kit with the single 120?

Don't waste your time buying the kit. The radiator sucks, the tubing is pretty small bore, and the pump is reletivly weak, at stock settings. Try:
Aqua Computer Cuplex XT (cpu)
Aqua Computer Twinplex Pro (gpu)
Aqua Computer Aquatube (res)
Eheim 1046 with the 1048 impeller (pump)
8 or 10mm ID clear tubing (tubing)
All assorted fittings

Or if you prefer Big-bored?

Swiftech Storm
Swiftech GPU block (forgot the name)
Laiing D5 (it's rebranded, dangerden has one, swiftech has one, etc)
T-Line fitting
7/16 Masterkleer tubing
 
The cheapest one you can get is $399 Euros, + a $59 euro Block. That's approximatly 460 Euros, or about $580 USD. Wow. And it features:

Lian-Li PC70, aquabay at with aluminium frontplate, aquatube silver with bent plug&cool connectors, Eheim 1046 or aquastream-pump with a connector set, decoupling set for the Eheim-pump, airplex evo 160 plug&cool straight, 2x YS-Tech 80mm Silent-fan, 2 extension cables for fans, 2m tube plug&cool transparent (extra), thermal compound Arctic Céramique, AC-Fluid.

+ shipping from Germany.

It's cheaper to buy the components seperatly, and put them into the case. Try the AC Discussion thread.
 
If you want a pre-built H20 cooled case with blocks, rads, pumps or whatever...send me a PM. I can direct you to a place in the US that will build it to your specs. It is too expensive to buy it in Europe.

If you are on the Euro then get what you are looking for. If you are on the Dollar them check out this place: http://www.tempestcool.com/index.php. They do quite a bit of custom work. :D
