need more details bud
mobo,cpu, what your going to try and do to the cpu (voltages) then we need to know if you want internal or external

you can do water cooling for under 200 smackers easy, but this being your first gauntlet into the coolness of water you might consider a 1 stop shop like danger den and such..get your feet wet with a premium kit and never look back

What would you consider medium price range? And are you a DIY kind of guy or would you be more comfortable with a kit? Plan on overclocking? And what cpu are you planning on cooling?

I have an Abit NF-7 and a Mobile 2600, on air runs around 2.51 load temps around 44c. I got a kit from Danger Den (the intro kit) and am now at 2.59 , load temps at 38 to 39. Not bad at all I think!

Danger Den is a good company to buy from, good customer support. But keep in mind, a heatercore can be obtained at a locar car parts store, the pump is a fish tank pump... The kit will cost you around $190, and I think you can get all the parts to do the same yourself for a lot less. If you are a totall w/c noob, get a kit, and build your next one yourself!

Have a great one!

I can't add much other than one thing AntiM told me before:
"Buy the good stuff. You will regret it if you buy lesser gear."
As for anything more specific....you're in the right place Michael.

best of luck with your project.
