Does Watercool?
Has anyone tried PC watercooling, without frying anything, and is it worthwhile?
Does the pump make noise, did you need an extra fan, was it temperature controlled, does volume help?

I'm thinking of making my own with oversized tank and automobile brake fluid radiator. I've got some scrap copper that I was thinking of soldering some pipe to for the cpu heatsink. I've considered getting a universal windshield washer pump, but they are not rated for extended use, I'd have to buy something mean't for the job. I was also looking at peltiers to enhance the project, but the trade is more potential wattage drain(75W) and maybe another power supply. I'd like something not obvious that hardly makes a noise.
I've picked up some automobile sound control matting(tarlike) but I'm not sure that's better from the carpet underlayment I'm using in my cabinet now.
