I'm currently running with Corsair H110. Definitely better compared to a decent air cooling.
However, at overclocked state, if I run benchmark, will still hit >90C ph34r.gif

h110 is terrible with benchmarking tools in this part of the world. doing it in air-conditioned room might help, but that's lying to show those results without stating the actual environment imo, because i think most people are expecting something that are done at room temperature.

however with that said, for real-world gaming, it does its job fine (well within my limit of 85c). furthermore, i just did push configuration. (using stock fans) it might be be slightly better if it's a push-pull.

later i will use h110 for gpu cooling. maybe that will make it more useful.

My room is pretty hot, and seldom turn on air-cond to cut down electricity bill tongue.gif Of course if I turn on air-cond, the temp will drop another 5-10C.
On nearly all real-world usage, my 4790K @ 4.6GHz will be below 70C at full load except video encoding.
And yea, I'm using push-pull fan config.

By the way, how do you mod H110 for GPU cooling? I'm interested in doing that as well laugh.gif

Yea, very tempted to go custom WC. $$$ aside, still require a lot of effort...a bit lazy tongue.gif

mainly the $ la...

effort wise, it was much easier than i anticipated... the result is more than worthwhile.
and there's this... thing that feels damn good seeing/hearing liquid flowing around your pc (i was gazing at the damn reservoir/tubings during loop/leak test lol)

Still a lot more effort compare to AIO. Need to assemble, need to test, etc, etc... yawn.gif

the thing that bug me is not the price,
but the maintenance..  rclxub.gif

time consuming leh..
when cleaning/ add change part.

I worry less about cleaning... maybe I didn't run it 24/7 laugh.gif

you can use nzxt g10 or corsair's addons, http://www.corsair.com/en/cooling/gpu-cooling (however need to check compatibility with h110)

i use g10 because i have bought it and it's compatible with asetek heat sinks (like h110). it's like this one in the tutorial at youtube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weV0FlahyDo

Thanks for the link. Will take a look later biggrin.gif
