lol i love the rig. The fx-55 is awesome. I find it weird how you are pairing an athlon fx-55 with a geforce 6600. lol. You could at leats get a 6800GS for like 50 to 60 dollars more. Overall nice rig, but change the videocard to a lettle better one. Otherwise ditch the fx-55 and get an opteron with a better videocard.

Should be a nice setup (upgrade the video card...)

As far as temps go, can't really comment on that till you assemble it... they can have small differences in the hardware used to cool, thermal paste used... etc. etc.

in theory no, as long as you take your time to insure that there aren't any leaks, and that it is set up properly.

the system is built in to the case so the setup is only on the video card and the cpu then connect the hoses. everthing can from the same mfg. so it is not a miss match system.

im goin to take about 4 to 5 hrs to set it up
