has anyone used that big water system before? I'm seriously considering getting into water cooling, I'm tired of my PC sounding like a plane taking off.

have used the pre SE version (doesn't have the big reservoir) for a long time, extremely easy to set up and get running. i had it installed on a P4E 3.0@3.8 max temps were ~60 with idling ~43. this is with the fan at 50% it would go down a couple more degrees at full blast. imho this is a real good system for those who want to check out water cooling due to the fact that everything is included and the connectors are the kind that seal more as you tighten them, no need to fool with screw clamps.

For what it's worth, googling will show you sources for the Bigwater SE in the $100-106 range with no rebates, so no need to rush to get it from Xoxide.

Beware....Xoxide, SVC and Directron all charge 7 dollars shipping at least. Let's see...I planned on ordering a $1.50 10" SATA cable...and guess what the shipping was? $7.09. WTF?! Such crap that is...might as well buy it from Fry's Electronics.

You are wrong about SVC. SVC is great in regards to shipping charges and don't charge a $7 minimum. You choose different shipping methods of UPS or USPS from SVC. Last time I ordered a couple of small cables from SVC, I selected USPS first class and paid around a dollar for shipping.
