Default Re: Koolance Exos-2...is it worth it?

Water will do slightly better than air, but you might look into some of the TEC/Heatpipe units that are being sold. They are actively cooled using the peltier cooler and the heatpipes are more for cooling the pelt than the processor. While your results will be limited with a hot room, it will perform better than water alone. I've been seeing these coolers for around $150 or so on Newegg. Ultra and Vigor both make this type of cooling, and I remember seeing one or two others but can't recall the brand names offhand.
