Sorry, but I won't go back to an air system, unless a new technology comes out that cools as good as water, is quiet like a water system, and doesn't cost more than a water system
. Those prommies are out of control and the price is outrageous. The prommy is only good for one thing. If it could be expanded to cover all the heat producers in the case, then the exorbitant price may be worth it.
Northbridge coolers such as the Gigabyte cooler are quiet. Asus didn't even bother to put a fan on theirs. There are extreme coolers as the swifty, but the cost and noise are too much for me.
I thought cooling the nb would be worth it at first, but I'm going to run without it and see what the differences will be. Will post the results.
