I had a liquid cooled PC once

It leaked on the motherboard and started a fire....

NAH just kidding haha... I really did have a water cooled computer though, about 4 or 5 years ago.

Yes, it worked awesome! I have pictures, but they're at home and I'm at work right now.

At the time, I was running a $125.00 CPU overclocked at speeds comparable to a $600 CPU - it was sweeeeeeet

What did it cost you to build the whole system? At the time was it "top of the line" for comp performance?

I don't remember the exact cost. It wasnt cheap though, but it wasnt as much as 5k either... It was probably somewhere around $1,500 if I had to guess. It was a while ago so it's hard to say, but at the time it was one of the fastest computers around... and it played DOOM 3 and HL2 like a DREAM!

But at the time if you wanted to go to a store and buy a computer that was just as fast as the one I had built you would have had to spend probably around $3,500 or 4k and mine only cost me around $1,500 to build

MAYBE if you put it side by side with the same TV playing a regular DVD, but even then I'm sure the difference isnt worth the $$$ haha
Blu-ray also supposely has more features and extra content than a DVD.

Oh really? I thought Blu-ray DVDs were the same size as standard dual layer DVDs, but I could be wrong about that...

There the same size but blu-ray has more storage capacity than a regular DVD. This adds more bonus content.
