Btw bro shawty, i suggest adding ambient temps on the list as well, it does plays an important role in the temps.

This thread should provide a very informative db on HSF's

I wonder, whats the best air cooling which can be obtained in malaysia at the moment given that budet isnt a problem at all...? well... there is a limit haha, max <RM350

Any recommendations? im thinking of reverting back to air cooling since the hassle of draining the water each time i change any components and reinstalling the whole thing back at once is a farking pain in the ass.

hmm.. are there any other options? somehow... IFX/U120eX/S1283 performance does not impress me at all
Or perhaps i was expecting too much out of air cooling... this is a very difficult decision to make
save the hassle and sacrifice performance.. haha.

well.. that is if you take my current WC kit as "mid-end"

wow... the V8 looks bloody ganas
but initial thought based on the design, it will be a noisemake.

hmm... this would be very interested, i dont think it will be hard for me to bring in this cooler since my company has a few model of this brand as well...
