to your first post. Hard to tell it depends if you just want to cool your CPU. It's hard to tell either way, whether or not you decide to cool your CPU only, CPU and Chipset/CPU and GPU or all three.

to your second post. There is no link so we don't know which block you are talking about. And yes you still need to apply some type of TIM

I suggest you read the stickies and search the Watercooling section to get an idea of what everyone is using, what we recommend etc.

it's truely dependant on the system you get. some could be worse than what you have now, some, most maybe would certainly drop your temps.

plus, we don't know what you're running on air - hard to benchmark against just a relative number.

if you get a WC kit then most like your temps would be no better than if you ran a top end air cooling heatsink like the sp-94. If you build your own, chances are you temps will be much much better. I went from an sp-97 the equaivant in AMD land of a sp-94 from 44 load, to 31 load. Your temps will vary. What is your main reason for wanting to watercool? I wanted a quieter system.
