    Red face Watercooling H70 or something similar

    hey peepz

    Looking for a watercooling setup for my e8500, yes its oldschool but im stuck at 4.1ghz with 67deg + - and want to go further.

    so if anyone has a watercooling kit and their willing to let go of it, please let me know. I have the aerocool PGS-R bx-500 and iv seen how the h100 just fits, however coompromising access to your ram :/ so was thinking somethink like the h70 or khuler 920.

    lemme know

    4.1 GHz is very close to your 24/7 limit for that chip I'm afraid, is it really worth spending 100s on cooling for an extra 100 MHz or so?

    Yeah man, truth be told a lot of people running top end water cooling were topping out around where you are for 24/7.
