    If you are in the mood you might wanna look into watercooling too. There are a few of us that are at various atges in their builds with these. Some have already had blocks on theirs and had therm up and running with custom made mounts, and there are just now commercial LGA1366 mounts avauilable for some of the blocks, and more will be coming in the next couple of weeks.

    I'll be watercooling my i7 system after I test it out on air for a bit. I'm just using the stock cooler that came with the CPU for testing. If you'd like miore info, come on down and join us in the watercooling section. It's fun!

    Thanks for the invite, I was into water cooling a couple years ago, air cooling is just easier! Most of my systems only stay together for a couple weeks.

    Yeah at this point this thing is so toasty I might end up doing water cooling.. Given my propensity for laziness it would have to be one of those 'factory sealed' noob systems.
