Price is the biggest advantage even if you do lose a few degrees in temperature.
The thing is... I can get the Big Water SE for much less than the XP-90C + Tornado + LGA775 brackets combo.

I'd look into some other brands of fans before settling with the Tornado. I had 2 of them before and they were loud like vaccum cleaners. Delta and Panaflo make great fans too. But your best bet would be a fan controller... if you ever plan on sleeping at night.
That's what I thought too ! I don't want to turn into a hysterical maniac due to lack of sleep

Room is 76°f, system is 30°c per abit EQ.
I've been running benches for the last

Yes I was talking about room temperature.
In case you decide to overclock then, by all means, keep me posted about your temps and how well the Big Water SE performs under stress.

Thanks and good luck with the benchmarking.
