I'm using a Corsiar H80i water cooler.It's a sealed loop so no chance of leakage if installed correctly. Ditto, except I jumped in earlier than the H80i - I run with the H70 and its dual fans on either side of the radiator. I'm running a 3.07Mhz chip at 4.20GHz. That's running the processor at about 128% of its rated speed. Been stable like that for years. Don't think that would be possible on air. Awards
