Ok so let me put this out there right away:
i dont have an intention to do water cooling at the moment since money is tight.
Anyway, Im curious. Ive never done water cooling but it just seems awesome to me. I wanna ask how much would it cost for an entire water cooling setup like the CPU..
My Unit.
A8 5600k
Gigabyte f2A75m-dh2
is it compatible? Generic Casing will do?

are you referring to an Open LCS or a Closed LCS?
to answer your question on the compatibility... yes, most of the time, the CPU block and its mounting is compatible to your CPU... but there are old mountings and blocks that were only designed for LGA 775, AM2 & AM3... but this is only true for the generic Open LCS (head blocks and mountings)... most branded products are already compatible to all platforms...

Open LCS = Open Loop (Liquid) Cooling System... kita ang mo DIY sa configuration... ug butang sa coolant... needs maintenance...
Closed LCS = Closed Loop (Liquid) Cooling System... pre-configured na sya... no maintenance involved on the coolant... maintenance lang ani nya kay pag limpyo or kuha sa dust sa radiators ug sa fans...
as long as maka install ug 120 mm fans ang generic chassis nmo... then your good to go... even if not, kun naa sya'y buslot for the tubes (on Open LCS), pwede ra ibutang ang rads outside the chassis... if Closed LCS, sa sulod mana sa chassis sya... ang fan ang rad size kay 120 mm ug ang mga bag-o, naa'y 140 mm... on the single rads... naa man pud naka long rads (compatible for dual fan)... naa gani multiple fan na rads na sa gawas i-install sya...
anyway, you can start w/ Closed LCS lang sa if you want to experience this "hydo cooling system" galore...Last edited by lloyd_joy; 08-29-2013 at 12:17 PM.

pwede pud GPU... but mag Open LCS naka ana para ma apil sya sa loop... mao ning naka nindot sa Open LCS kay versatile... CPU, GPU, mem modules and north/south bridge and pwede i-hydro cooled... then nice pa gyud kaayo tanawon ang set-up nya... downside lang kay ang maintenance but, lingaw ni sya kaayo...
check sa mga shop dha if naa ba'y available stocks on the Closed LCS... from Corsair, Antec, Thermaltake ug Cooler Master... manufacturer ana nila kay isa lang man... ang Asetek... wla man gud ko's pinas ron maong dili ko maka hatag ug inputs sa store... if naa ka'y time, check sa mga shops sa SM or uban PC shops... tawagi lang sila if dili maka maka visit sa shop...
kanang gi sulti ni bro wery kay Closed LCS na sya...
