Yep, with shroud on push side, you can kind of see my set up in my sig, clicking on lian li..
I need lower ambients, not only do you get better temps, but it pulls lower watts. Dropping ambients ~10C will get you 11-12C lower load, 10C lower directly and another 1-2C because cpu uses power more efficiently ie ~10% less power at 10C lower temps, confirmed with everest watts and k/w meter....mine showing drop 12C nets ~13-14C lower load temps.
I think Justin has ~18-21C ambients with 3 rads. I can duplicate his temps in post 22 with his mhz/vcore with ~14-15C ambients and 1 rad.
Here is 4.55 ghz 1.42vcore, 1.42qpi, 26-27C ambients, 10 mins prime load

Here is 4.55 ghz 1.42vcore, 1.42qpi 14-15C ambients, 10 mins of exact same prime load

Here is chart comparing both with all time points
