I am currently using a Cooler Master Aquagate S1. It just doesn't seem to cut it. When i am gaming and the CPU's are at full load they still run about 180f/82c - 200f/93c so I was considering an upgrade. Anyone have any suggestions? Should I stick with liquid cooling? Any input is appreciated smile.gif
