does anyone else feel that watercooling lost its magic? i have had a watercooled pc for the last 8 years, but now, for the first time i am posting on a completely air cooled pc. I have all the parts i need to water cool it, with a pelt, except at pump, but i just have a hard time getting motivated. im overclocked, 2.2-2.7 amd 64 at ~250ddr ram, why should i bother with my pelt cooling when the stock air is almost silent? are we now lost? it almost feels like the few megahertz i can squeeze are moot. is watercooling now just a hobby that i follow for fun, or do we still have a good reason?
