Citation de "Halk"
Can't believe it. Apart from a leak or two that were quickly fixed, the watercooling I've fitted works.
Should it be that quiet? It's not making a sound. At all.
If I put my ear to the metal that the pump is attached to I can hear a slight noise.
I can only find out if it's working by touching the pump or the pipes connected to it, or looking in the top reservoir.
thats the right way, if you do not have an aquaero this is the only way to secure that the pump is working.
How long should I leave it running before I migrate my PC into it?
It's been running completely leak free, with the green light on now for a couple of hours.
you should let it run for about 12 hours, but you do not have to.

Thanks for the replies folks. 
My only problem with installing the Aquacomputer thing was the feeling that there were very very few English speaking people using AC. Americans dominate the market and UK people tend to get American products. Or if not American, Tawian products aimed at Americans.
When I go to install the motherboard etc, I'll turn the speed up.
How often should I change the water? And how would I go about emptying it? Just quickly detach the output from the pump and stick it into an empty bottle?

Halk, you can't use the the jumper if you have a controller in the version 3.0.
Here is a picture of a controller 3.0.
//edit
There is no magical formula how often you should change the water. Some people use it for years.
Every year should be enough if you want to change it in regularly interval, but it's not necessary. Keep an eye on it, if the water becomes weird it's time for a change
For emptying you can unplug a tube on a wise spot. I prefer the Aquatube. By the way: it is not recommend to use the water again.

And as for the light, is it a UV light, where does it go, and how is it fitted....
The light is fitted into a clear plexi/plastic fitting. The fitting can be screwed into any hole on the tube, and then a light can be placed inside (from the outside) to make it glow. There is a UV light, as well as a green, blue, red, and, white lights. I use a green one and it looks very nice. I also use a UV one as my power-on light.

You'll need a drop of glue to keep the light inside the plexi fitting if its vertical, i used just a drop of superglue for mine.
