Final Ratings:
This next chart was based on the Designed kit from tubing to screws, the
Installation methods, the Difficulty of the installation, and the Quality of
the water blocks. Some kits would improve greatly with something so small as
a bolt added to hold the long screws steady so that the chipset and VGA
water blocks are easier to install. And naturally some kits would benefit
greatly with at least a dual 12cm radiator upgrade.

Conclusion:
The great thing about water cooling is that there is almost always someone
else who has had the same success or obstacles as any other person. And chances
are you will find many answers or solutions to your questions in many forums,
including
Virtual-Hideout's. Google can be a very useful resource as well.
If at any time you come to an obstacle within your own system's water cooling
kit installation, feel free to stop by our Forums. You can also stop by our chat
room #Virtual-Hideout on both EnterTheGame.com and Gamesurge.net Internet Relay
Chat-room networks.
1. When possible, always pre-attach tubing to the water blocks, especially if
they are heavier or need more effort to push on the tubing.
2. Use non-detergent lubricant when attaching tubing to make it easier.
3. Use 100 Percent distilled water as it will help protect your components if
something ever leaks.
4. Read through the manual so you can ask questions ahead of installation, if
you have any.
