I cant i know or have ever heard of clear PVC, but i do know of a retail product that might work for you, its made by a company called innovatek (im my opinion the hard asses of water cooking kits) in germany but there are places online in the US that sell there products.

i've seen that product and it's too tall and too expensive too cut down too the size i need
what i'm doing is taking my Antec SOHO case and cutting out those ribbed things in the front and sticking my reservoir there for looks u know what i mean?

what i really need is a 4 inch diameter piece of pipe about 9-10 inchs tall and cut in half length wise so it's a semi circle, get what i mean?

I have an idea. There is a place around where I live that sells something like that. I used it to make a 6' bong when I was in high school. I would suggest actually buying a little bong somewhere and then using that. You could even get different colors.

I don't think that they have condensation problems unless you use a peltier. The water is usually at about room temperature. I have never used water cooling but have done quite a bit of reading on it. I will have a water cooling setup very soon.

Interesting, I would be worried the metal sink with water going through it would start condesation on the outside, but I guess people have been doing it for a long time now with no problems.

I think that to create condensation you would have to have the water much colder than the air around it. Now if you add ice to the water that may cause you some problems.
