Ok guys, I could really use some advice from some of the well-informed folks here. I will be building a system in 2-3 months, and I was shopping around for cases, etc. now. I haven't decided on the CPU yet, motherboard, etc. But here is the dilemna I have:
Prometia Mach I - $350 + S/H
Everything necessary to use on a P4.
OR
Vapochill XE - $550 + S/H
Which includes:
P4 Socket Kit ($84.00)
Blue LEDs
An extra temp sensor ($28.00)
Temperate Monitor on front of case
2 - Extra 80mm Fans in Front
2 - Extra 50mm Fans in Back
Abit Wire Mod
Extra Front Side Bezel
1- 2oz. tube Dielectric Grease
1 - 1oz. tube DOW Corning Conformal Coating
2 Danger Den Multi-packs Neoprene
comes w/ Original Shipping Box
The condition of each is 100%, from what I've been told, and I just can't decide. I really want to go towards the Mach I, because I can save $200. But is it really $200? I haven't decided on a processor yet, so I don't know which solution would be better. I know Prometia is out of business, but is Vapochill's warranty anything special? I am not savvy enough with phase-change cooling to know what else I need. Guys, please offer whatever advice you can on this. Please put yourself in my place, and let me know what factors I should be looking at.
Thank you so much!
