watercooling 9800xt

Hi all, Ive got a 9800xt @450/390 and Im going to watercool my cpu/gpu. Im looking at the hydrocool200 or Exos/al. Does anyone have these and use them for there 9800xt? Im just wondering what kind of overclock gains you are getting and how easy is it to install it on the 9800xt. I scared I will ruin my card if I do it wrong

Do some more research. buying a watercooling kit usually has shitty gains. It would be a lot better and more likely cheaper to do a DIY watercooling system. Overall water cooling isn't that hard, you just have to do a leak test ouside of the system before you put it inside your case.

I'd personally get a Danger Dan block from Danger Den. they seem to be the best. And for the CPU blocks you can add peltiers
