Great review man. Sweet stuff. Looks like it's either this or the Kraken X40 for me.

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one facing the heat issue from a Haswell i7.
At first I thought i just got myself a lemon, but after confirming with few friends who own a 4770k, the temp really sucks big time.
IMO the Sandy i7 I previously own did a way lot better than this, just way much better.
If you're going any higher with the clock, it's either you:

- be very lucky to get a great chip (golden batch?)
- go for the real deal watercooling setup
- delid the CPU ( lenglui delid CPU service : https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2971611 )

Just my 1 sen of course.

Question, rather than CPUs, I'm looking for a 120/140mm AIO to cool my GPU (290X) together with a NZXT G10. I'm guessing that the 140XL is not compatible with the G10 right?

Also, what do you think is the best bang for buck/best performing 120mm/140mm AIO out there?
