    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. ^^

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

    Ops, I forgot the price. Yeah, in my country (Romania) price difference between H100i and R1 is about 40-50$. 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?

    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.

    Thanks guys. I have a Corsair Graphite 780T case..pretty big case with lots of space inside. I removed the hdd racks so the front vents are not blocked.
