Our in-depth review found Corsair's Hydro Series H50 all-in-one liquid CPU cooler to be a touch better than class-leading air alternatives, and we found installation to be so easy that we suggested your gran could do it.

Do it ! I'm very impressed…

I have one with Push & pull 1600rpm fans in my i7 rig Clocked @ 4 GHZ - 1.22v - 37oC/70oC, its lower my temps loads. Had a Lapped TRUE with push & pull set up before this Clocked @ 3.8 GHZ - 1.65v 41oC/78oC…

4MHz? That's some serious underclocking. ;)

Overclocking is so 2009. Get ahead of the times!
its too easy to actually count as watercooling tbh, its like a two-part heatsink joined by tubes :laugh: love mine :)
