    It was good enough until the high end CPU's came out. My Q9550 quad core was ok with the aftermarket fan but with the 2700K, I didn't want to risk it. My corsair H80 is a great setup and very reasonable pricing. I'm not brave enough to build my own liquid cooling from scratch though.

    The Gentle Typhoons are the best fans Ive ever used hands down. They cost an arm and a leg though....

    The fan controller was miss manufactured and was on sale (mounting holes were drilled upside down) Its behind a door so I could care less
