From my understanding it was an Asetek system, and no, he didn't install it incorrectly. The PC was constructed (and therefore, cooling system was installed by them) by a PC customization company known as iBuyPower, which most people (including MMO-Champ) believe to be "legit".
It wasn't even 2 years old from my recollection, and was not moved more than a few times to make sure the outsides of the fans were clean from dust.
Just be sure if you get one of these systems, they are installed correctly, and very carefully, since as I've learned even "professionally" (or so I believe anyway) installed ones can leak. Maybe it's the brand. Do a lot of research on this thing and it should be ok.
