I'm thinkin of upgrading to wc but will it actually help? With my scythe ninja I've never seen my cpu go over 46 and my gpu never goes over 59 with the zalman on it. Is watercooling going to let me o/c any further?

You will be able to overclock more on the cpu and gpu buy watercooling them. Id say 50mhz on cpu 10mhz gpu with no changes to voltgae input mabey more im just taking a guess from my standpoint from air cooling to water cooling. Since the cooler the procesor is (cpu/gpu) the higher mhz you can get out of them at the same voltgae, but also by watercooling them you have the option to voltmod the gfx card for more mhz and up cpu vcore more to get more of an overclock.

water is generally allways better, once u have water u will have it forever so its not like it wears out and dies, its made a lot of difference to my rig thats for sure!!!- and Ive only got the cheaper thermaltake big water system.....

§hinoßi

its worse.......compared to phase change, BWAHAHAHA!!

but yeah, if you've got $100 or two, get a kit, the advantage of watercooling is that you can cool your CPU, Chipset, and GPU at the same time. You'll have an all around better system.

i think liquid cooling is definitly worth if you are an advid gamer/overclocker.

Yes watercooling is worth it. Hands down on that one.

The price of entry is actually worth it if you consider the fact that buying a pump and radiator will only be a one time thing (most of the time). And good blocks cost in the same range of a good hsf (if not a little bit more) and the temps you get are significantly lower on a WC system than on traditional fans, not to mention its also quieter.
