Another budget water cooling kit. Performs a little better than the Iceberg 1, but had a much more devistating leak. Customer service was great and we got a new block fast!

"I have been fidgeting around with water cooling for some time now. Our first review of a water cooling kit was the budget Ahanix Iceberg 1. If you decide to jump into water cooling, do not expect a budget kit, such as the Iceberg 1, to provide good temperatures. The cheaper kits usually don't perform much better than a much, MUCH cheaper air cooling solution. Today we will be looking at the Crossover Mission 5 water cooling kit courtesy of Xoxide. This kit, another budget solution, is around $40 more than the Iceberg 1. Will it perform better than the Iceberg 1? Let's hope so..."
