I tried an H60 and it was lousy, made too much noise and wasn't that effective.

Went back to a big air cooler which is nearly silent and cooler.

Bigger one's work better. :wink:

ive got the h100...runs at @now 30 ish idle ( the i7 950 is overclocked too nearlt 4ghz tho..and @ 50-55 underload while playing bf3

fans...i'd say same as stock cooler... but underload..a bit noisier..nothing out of the ordinary for me tho
well worth it...read the reviews on it and the h80

Nice case, really like the look of them.
