Asetek Waterchill Watercooling Review

The Guru of 3D has posted a review on the Asetek Waterchill Watercooling system
Roughly three weeks ago the good people over at Asetek contacted Guru3D.com to see if we were interested in doing another watercooling review. Now ever since the first watercooling article that we posted last year things have changed a bit. I went from "ehw" water in a PC towards a situation where 4 of my PC's in the lab are now watercooled. Watercooling is getting really popular these days and it should be; it's silent and highly effective.
See the thing is, PC's these days are getting hotter. And especially if you have a new model Pentium 4 processor based on the Prescott core you pretty much will have a heat issue. I have two of these what I like to call furnaces here in the lab. The first is a Pentium 4 3.6 GHz CPU that runs upwards of 70 Degrees C when fully used and the second a system with a Pentium 4 3.46 GHz Extreme edition with a huge noise making cooler on it. That little ~100 Watt sucking puppy still is reaching 65 Degrees C when heavily used.
