Conclusion:

I was impressed by the ease and reliability of the set-up of this unit. Being new to the water-cooling community, I was naturally concerned about leaks and performance. The Evercool Water Cooler WC-202 has shown me how far the technology has come. After using this unit, I'm not as concerned about leaks as I was in the past. Evercool has gone to great lengths to help ensure that you do not have any leaks.

The Evercool WC-202 is great for getting your feet wet with water cooling. Everything you need to get started is included in this kit. Anybody that can put together a computer can put this kit together, and have a reliable and effecient water cooled system.

The biggest issue I had was in regards to the fan speeds. For the internal fan, you can increase/decrease the fan, but you cannot see the actual speed of the fan. For the external radiator fan, you can see the speed of it, but you cannot increase/decrease the speed. On high speed, the internal fan is much louder than any other fan in my system.

The Evercool Water Cooler WC-202 is priced around $100.00 at PCToys, which you can't beat for a water cooling kit that includes everything you need to get started! You can always go get a more professional water cooler to get better performance, but you will also pay more and have to spend more time getting it just right.

If you are new to water cooling, the Evercool WC-202 would be a great place to start! Overall I have to give this a 4 out of 5... "Recommended".

Final Rating (4 out of 5 stars):

Pros:

• Easy set-up
• Good cooling performance
• Quiet
• No Leaks!

Cons:

• No "Bling"
• Included antifreeze not UV reactive
• Internal fan speed not reported on LCD
• External fan speed not controllable, but reported on LCD
