its just a normal case, and you have watercooled heatsinks that go on certain components.

You might notice that there is a fairly extensive cooling system in those cases.

case + cooling system + controller...normally.
They are expensive, but TBH you wouldnt ever use one unless you were buying a top spec computer and overclocking it...in which case this would be one of the lowest priced components!

See, Cosmo has grasped how to give sensible answers, ed, have you not covered that at 'parent funded university' yet oh well...
I can see what you're saying, Cosmo. I suppose the price of those is high to me as I'd spend less on a full Dell system with TFT I'm not a PC gamer or doing anything mega-demanding on the machine like rendering, etc. so it suits my needs fully
It'd only be a novelty item to me that my mates wouldn't even get a single kick out of, i'd find something else to spend that kind of money on

If you're going to try and take the piss out of me I suggest you try something original. Woopie, I go to uni and my parents contribute a large ammount of money towards it. Oh, they bought me an £11k car and a £700 number plate for it too. Anything else you would like me to disclose?

You can but it will require some cutting of the case for the radiator etc. Fluid is sealed so only needs changing once a year or so.
You will need a full tower case to fit it all on though. Whtas the point? what system are you running that passive heatsinks/fans wont cool?
