But riskier than fan... Is it worth getting one? |

Why would you get a flimsy sports card? Don't they break easier?
Performance. Same goes for the tubes. And I don't really think there that prone to breaking if you install them right. If I was you I would only get it if I was planning to do some serious overclocking. If your just going to let it chill there, then don't get it. Your better off with a better fan. _________________

often times, no, it's not worth it unless you're one of those idiots that just builds computers to run 3dmark |

Well, people who use water cooling to run 3dmark aren't idiots, they're like people who are hardware critics/bench markers. |

Only get it if you're planning to overclock or seriously pump your CPU to the maximum. The systems are expensive (if you get a decent one, which you should because otherwise you may have all kinds of problems...) but well worth it if you are going to use the extra performance boost that they give. I am a water cooling system user and am glad I installed it, but I have overclocked my computer quite a bit, and I am an intense gamer... _________________

They are idiots because 3Dmark isn't an accurate way of telling card performance.
nvidia and ATI know this, they optimize the fuck out of their drivers for 3dmark and other benchmarks and because of this, it isn't a good way to measure how well it will perform in the real world. |
