Thanks! It was a fun little experiment, and let me play around with overclocking a bit.

My System Specs

i have a corsair h50 and yes you know what it is more expensive than comparable air coolers but i find not only does it look really cool but its very quiet depending on fans and it doesn't have to be HUGE in your case. I have an i7 920 OCed to 4.2GHz and i idle at ~45c and load with intelburntest max cores and memory, 10 runs, the highest it goes is like 70c maybe 72c. i also got it for 70$ at Bestdirect.ca
I would recommend it. But i mean i would love to go full water but cannot afford it right now.
