I agree, I think the data does speak for itself. Im glad to have somone who bought it to reply on the forum. Welcome.

My water setup is anywhere from 38-44C at full CPU load with 27C ambient. Your setup may be lower than aircooling. But why pay that much for such little gains, if a complete water setup yields such lower numbers, and a fan can put you in the same relative ballpark?

Another thing. You may wish to get some fans blowing air into that case. You see with high case temperatures, you raise the bar that that unit can go down to. If you could lower your case temp by 5 degrees, the cpu temp may dip below 60C. Maybe.
