More impressive to me than the water cooled computer is the fact that this guy is married.

Wow. That's like, maybe the 5th time I've seen that. Hope he doesn't ever have to move his computer...

It's really not all that difficult to do; mine's watercooled, for instance.

Yeah, my car's watercooled too. Funny thing is, that's how I bought it!

I've built a couple water cooled systems before. None using car radiators though. My brother and I built this one that was an open system and it was way more efficient than any kit you could buy. The only downside was that you had to refill it every couple hours.

You should be fine, so long as you remember to test the complete system for a day or two outside of the computer first.
