    Water Cooling computer system - OK I have a few fans on my computer and they do make a bit of noise ( very little but enough )

    So I was thinking about installing a computer water cooling system as would like a quiet system for cooling my computer

    Has anyone got and installed computer water cooling system , are they any good or just a bit of a toy

    THank you for your time

    I have used the water cooling system before, however, the effect wasn't good enough as I imagined.

    They're very inconvenient to set up. And they require a bit of upkeep too. Not to mention, lots of money for a good system.

    If you want a cool computer without all the noise, buy a good power supply, CPU fan and silent case fans. It won't be completely quiet, but it's better than dealing with water cooling.

    Another thing to lookout for with water cooling is that all companies that sell the parts only have a warranty on their item and not the whole system you install it on. So if a simple leak starts from poor tubing, your expensive system goes down the drain (no pun intended).

    Can it be installed for all systems including MAC?
