Watercooled Aluminum Casing

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the cooler-is-better dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Overclockers Online has posted a review of an all aluminium black Lian Li case equipped with a Z4 watercooler. Besides looking slick this product, that goes by the name Heat Seeker, performs very well." Part of me wonders when is enough, well, enough. Then I stuff that part into a box and try to justify buying one of these things ;)

    O.k., let me get this straight. I'm supposed to spend $350 bucks on a specialist possibly overly-complicated (and therefore prone to failure) water-cooled case so that I can clock my CPU at a higher frequency than what it was built for.

    OR I could use that money to buy the following (from pricewatch):
    • $67 for 256 Megs DDR 2700 Ram.

    • $135 for an Athlon XP 1700+



    which leaves ~$150 for a super mainboard and just use my normal case.

    Sorry, this sort of thing never made much sense to me.
