It's Logan, you have to take everything he says with a hill of salt. And he shows he's not exactly competent in that video by telling people to lap an HDT style heatsink.

Yea that video didn't really show much in terms of accurate readings between both coolers.

Currently im getting around 67/68c @ 4.5Ghz w/ 2500k (1.28v) w/ ambient at 70/71F (using 1 fan).

Would be nice to see a 10c drop using a closed loop but I don't think that is possible unless my ambient drops to around 64/65F. Maybe a 5/6c difference at the most.

Post your results, you should have a screenie somewhere stored on your PC biggrin.gif

Xigmatek sent me my replacement fans (2200RPM), here are my push/pull results @ 4.6Ghz (1.296v) @ 21c/70F ambient.

@ 1700RPM's it sat @ 63/64c

@ 2200RPM's it sat @ 61/62c

Show me better results, prove me wrong.
