agreed,

btw, i thk u only need compromise when choosing a smallish / lowperformance rad like the BIXes. then u go for sound or performance.

when picking the rads slightly overkill, it is very easy to get the temps cathar states at 5V.

in my case, if i use computernerd W calc for a 1700+ at 2060MHz @ 2.2V i am getting somewhere near 135W, at that time my watertemp gets 6°C over ambient at 7V.

these are crazy settings, when running moderate OC : 2.025V i can easily get 2-3 over ambient at 5V. so i guess u could call it a delicate balance.

cheerz
