Review : Cooking on Gas now!
Bought this after deciding to build myself a new monster PC with as much top hardware as i could.

Firstly, it comes in a nice little box with a stock cooler heatsint and fan and an instruction manual. Very simple. Come build day after dropping it in, I decided not to use the stock cooler because I'd heard these babies can run hot under load and that stock cooler doesn't look upto much, so I decided to buy a Corsair H60i water cooler to run the cooling side of things while I'm powergaming or whatever.

Finally got to my new windows and the performance of this thing (at stock speeds even) is still staggering, I've been on the PC all night doing things and it hasen't broken a sweat once. Very impressed. Having the 'K' version is also an added bonus that if in the future it does start getting tierd for whatever reason (can't see it), then you can open the taps for more horses. Sweet.

Temps: Right now it's chilling at 27C with the Corsir H60i...It's maximum...
