well this is my temporary solution
... but as i will have air conditioning installed next week it wont be needed anymore...
the machine is still too new to need extreme oc (it has "moderate" one: the Ati9800SE mutated to Pro and then oced to aprox XT the memorys moved from 3-3-3-5 400 (ddr)to 2.5-3-3-5 (440ddr) and the processor upped from 2100Mhz to 2300Mhz=>AMD64 3200+ to AMD64 3600+)
rock solid without extra cooling when the ambient temperature is below 34ÂșC
so i told the pals that made the red and yellow water systems that it wont be needed them to play with my rig until next yr(they were indeed eager to play with it they say it has opportunitys, and from people that can overclock an Athlon from 1700+ to 3200+ i will believe it)
the only prob is that the DVD burner still spits a shard of the XP cd from time to time...(it still works most of the time tough... but when my fingers touch bits of it i think about Smuel L Jackson cleaning the car in Pulp Fiction...)
