Corsair? Ah that explains it. If you are going to use a liquid cooling system Coolermaster is the way to go.  :thumbsup:

For those who think that beer cooling your pc isn't daft enough, how about cooling it with whiskey....  So high alcohol content plus pc components that could run up to 100oC....  noooo:

I'm starting to think that the ultimate test would be to use some of BM's home brew....  scared2:

If you're daft enough to waste whiskey that way you might just as well piss on it to cool it down
