    What I have done is that I have 1 low db fan going constantly, 1 fan that kicks inn at about 40C CPU temp, and 1 highly efficient fan that kicks inn at 50C CPU temp. The last fan only kicks inn when I'm running Crycis or something similar high end game at max res, max details.
    (As a note, my system allso cools down two gfx cards, vcore and ram).
    Passive cooling is for silence, watercooling isn't and it was originally used for overclocking achievements. Now you can get a passively cooled system that runs silently and if you want to, you can always add the same low db fan to that system and not have a pump humming in the background...

    Also efficient, quiet watercooled rigs are generally quite large where as passively cools rigs are generally quite small. Just another benefit really, watercooling is just to look cool!

    I'm using a dual core socket 939 Athlon 4800+ CPU on a MSI RS482M4-CSIP micro ATX board...

    I use the built in VGA for my display and the onboard audio for my mic and HDRadio inputs...the Xonars are strictly for output...

    Here is my basic setup in 'Mulch;


    And sometimes I experiment with delay as well;

    Great work WuNgUn I love it. Even if you put in water cooling just to say "Because I can" it's great. I am not sure I'd do it,but then again where I used to live 100 degree days for weeks on end it might be a good idea. I got to say I just finished most of my install in my Honda cr-v, (it's still in the work logs section) and I am very jealous of your install.
    My new install

    D945GCLF2, M350 case,Xenarc 700 tsv,m-4 ATX
    Visteon HD radio w/mitches cable, BU-353
    2 Punch 150 amps, 1 Kicker ZX 400.1 watt
    4 Boston Acoustic Speakers,2 Pioneer 10 subs

    just been reading through this thread and i must admit i was a bit sceptical about the watercooling in an automotive enviroment, but as usuall im wrong again, it looks amazing and has given me some serious thought to watercooling both my upcoming carpc and home pc too, any reccomendations to a W/C kit?

    great work on the setup hope mine turns out as good as this one

    Don't buy a 'kit'...buy quality components and only what you needs. 50% of my water cooled stuff came off Ebay...some of it left over from my home PC...

    Don't skimp on pumps or rads!
