    Water-cooling was invented for game computers, if I'm not mistaken, gradually the price dropped and htpc builders found it was easier to build a w-c pc than a passive one...

    Nope, its not all blue and funky. I like to keep things clean looking with a nice minimal look.
    Computers can be pretty confusing, especially with so many new terms, phrases, etc it can be hard to keep up, but thankfully that is my area of expertise

    Water cooling is not for the faint hearted as we all know water and electricity dont mix, more so when you are talking about hundreds of pound of electronics. That said, the results can be very good indeed.

    Ha, Im not a big gamer, but do play some on my Xbox 360 or PC every once in a while. Haven't been able to for some time though due to my university work load. Who would have thought your final year at university would be the hardest....

    You should have taken Philosophy like me instead of a proper subject that can earn you money in the real world!

    I think I might loose my sanity if I did that, especially given i'd have to write essays which are not my strong point and I hate.
    Making stuff is much more rewarding.
