Alright, looking for a water cooling kit.

I am running an AMD Athlon XP 3000. I do NOT overclock nor do I plan on overclocking. I currently have a Thermalright SLK-800 copper heatsink and Smart Fan 2 cooling the chip. This thing is way too loud. I am looking to purchase an all inclusive kit to cool my cpu and keep the noise to the absolute minimum.

Could someone suggest a good kit?
 
I've heard the Zalman reserator is more or less dead quiet.

I have an aquarius III and it's pretty quiet too.
 
I was looking into the Aquarius 3 but EVERYONE said stay away from it, they said it was loud and didn't cool so great and they recommended the Exos if I wanted an external cooling system.
 
Thermaltake has a smaller external watercooler, but the resterator is your best bet, being silent, i have a friend that has one

Btw, having an external watercool system, not only external but the resterator itself has low power compared to a custom setup
 
the reserator is huge and too expensive plus I have heard more negative things about it than positive.
 
Hmm...most of the reviews of the Zalman I've read are good if you aren't overclocking (but it's been awhile since I've read them, but not one was bad). One one I read had them using a Zalman VGA block also and the temps were definitely pretty good (don't remember what site, but I linked to it from both Google and ShackNews). But they were only a 3-4 degrees lower than quality air cooling (the temps weren't much better than my Zalman CNSP7000-AL-CU).
