already have water cooling .... thinking about going back to air. Need some advice.

What say you....

I have a Q6600 o/c'ed to 3.6 with Fusion waterblock ... thermochill rad 120.3 and D5 pump

thinking about going to a Prolimatech Megahalems Rev. B CPU Cooler

Water cooling is great but a pain in the a$$ if I want to quickly switch out parts.

How much will this affect my temps?

I'd say probably add at least 10C to your current temps. Could be more depending on the voltage. Remember that with watercooling you have 3x 120mm fans and not 1. Surface area is what really matters.

I don't think your temp will be affected by much since you don't have a lot to cool, guess you would be in the air cooling forum by now lol.
