My i7 920 is running stock 2.66Ghz on H50 with a pull and push setup pushing air out rear. I am getting only 41~45c idle and 58~59c max on few hours gaming, but if P95 blend stress test will go up to 65~68c. Pretty hot ... I still havent change the paste and lap it though and I'm not in an air-con room either haha.

Seriously I think you should listen to clawhammer and invest more to get a custom WC instead of this H50.

try intake from rear instead of exhaust mayb ?

but its like tht la.. those All in One solution always aim for silent setup with normal temp, not for excellent temp with silent setup...

cant comment on the performance against air coolers as i dont own any high end air coolers.

I've tried the rear intake but is a 1~2 degrees hotter than rear exhaust out LOL. So I am sticking to rear exhaust.

Too bad I dun have a TRUE or Megahalem to compare with directly else won't know which is better

i was just wondering... anyone did cascade WC setup before ??

2 WC loops...

1st loop cools all the component and the heat exchanger is a water block connected to the cold side of a pelt...

2nd loop cools the hot side of the pelt and uses a normal 3x120mm or 3x140mm radiator as heat exchanger...

someone already did cascade phase change cooling....
so i was just wondering anyone tried WC cascade setups

if yes, mind sharing tips and pics XD

Latest setup, no longer able to handle crazy 4.2ghz @ 1.475v for LinX, lose to MCR-320QP around 8-10c. with radiator fan acting as intake. But still running 4ghz at 1.35v easily. Better than MCR-220QP (acting as exhaust on my older built). Thumbs up for this Syscooling radiator, and its thicker and more FPI than the Swiftech.

guys, whoever wanna buy cheap WC like CoolIT Domino ALC should look on this benchmark test via maximum pc review... cheap WC kit vs high end cooler... it prove that cheap WC is not worth a buy...

check it out here:
http://www.maximumpc.com/article/reviews/coolit_domino_alc

the worse part is on the idle part, where it's on par with the stock cooler...

yeahh... on the the load of course Domino ALC is more better than Zalman (with high speed fan / medium fan used), but i bet other air coolers like Thermalright, Sunbeam or Prolimatech will performs better than Zalman in terms of full loading temperatures, so... the point is that the Domino ALC either performs worse than high end cooler or just on par with them in high loading temperatures, but in idling time, this so-called WC performs worse either it's in high speed or slow speed....

Nowadays it is not that hard to make a product lightbox,you can find a lot of thing like that by googling but basically a box with white paper,light diffuser and light,that about all you need for a product box

Anyway,to all liquid cooling user,here are a round up by madshirmps

Contender are Alphacool Livingstone,Yellowstone,Aquacomputer Cuplex XT DI2,Phobya,Heatkiller and Heatkiller LC and Ybris Eclipse Chrome.
