nahh, im just newbie
dont do any hard overclocking activities
i would suggest u as u in pushing ur processor there
@atomik br0
u should try this suggestion
shall result u a nice custom h20

actually nowadyas if u go for wc the temp not much difference compare to true120... damn this true120 arer superb air cooling hsf in for i7... although never own it.. but comparing to fellow forumers the temp are so near to my wc
feeling tht the investment i made not worth

still remember last time in 2006 the same kit with different wb ownage wen OC'ing opteron 146 and opteron 170 later that year...

delta not more than 10c for the 146 and below 20c for opty 170.. now with i7, delta freaking high wen running 3.6-3.8ghz with HT surely delta more than 20c.(taken from core temp and real temp)
i suspect its due to all core packed in such small area... cooling capabilities and efficiency of the wc dropped, due to small cooling area. Compare to last time, single core on a same surface area.
