or they know nuts about watercooling and just want to get the feel of it first.. but i think watercooling by itself is soo much cooler man...in a sense of being cool and not cold

I was talking to my brother-in law and he brought up a good question, with watercooling isn't there a chance that condensation can build up inside your case and affect your componets, not to mention something leaking and spilling water all over your case ?

Sure will have leak problems if you did not seal and fastern tubings, hoseclamps and fittings properly.
But I don't think there will be any condensations if everything is nicely sealed..

You can rest assure that there won't be any condensation issues unless you are using sub-zero water.

If its the first time building up a water cooling system...be sure to double check everything and check if the hose clamps are tight enough. Some hoses does not require hose clamps eg. Eheim 1/2" ID hoses. But always use hose clamps to be on the safe side. Run the setup outside the case for a period of time to test for leaks. Once leak proofed...it is safe to be placed inside your case.
