    Tiny scratches on cpu heatsink copper plate. Will affect performance?

    Why you sold the ultimate? :D because of the heatpipes interaction with ram? I use to measure my temp in the room and in my case too and I noticed that after 2 hours of gaming for example, temp in my case is about 29°C and room temp 25°C so what you said is indeed very corect. ^^

I use the R1 ultimate with stock fans, I found them really good, anyways better than the ones used on h100i. And I chose them over noctua because of the aesthetics, after all they are...

    Tiny scratches on cpu heatsink copper plate. Will affect performance?

    Thanks a lot for your information, and thanks others too. I was a bit concerned because I used a h100i gtx before (until the pump died) and when I removedit, it was pretty clean, so I tough I made something wrong or applyed to much pressure on the heatsink when mounting it even if I was very...

    i7 5930k over clock tips and help please

    I am so sorry to hear that, you've been a bit unlucky with that chip. AFAIK, brodwell-e doesn't overclock as good as the haswell did, but still, 1.4v at 4.1ghz seems a bit weird. .I mean the voltage looks so damn high to me, considering the fact that I hit 4.2ghz with only 1.1v and I will go for...

    What to choose? Air vs Water cooling.
