    Best CPU AIR COOLER by temperature?

    I did consider watercooling but there is too much risk of it leaking and causing a short circuit throughout the entire system. Air cooler is generally safer and i don't have to worry as much. Nice watercooling :)

    ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer LGA 1150 Motherboard Review @ [H]

    "The heat sinks aren’t particularly well made, these are loose and don’t appear to make contact with everything these should. The color is a bit off from the rest of the red items on the motherboard. The top mounted SATA ports take me back to the days when ribbon cables were common...

    Capacitors: ASUS vs Gigabyte vs Asrock

    Thx. So all Major MB now uses Japanese caps at least for the mainstream and upward(200 dollars and above). So the ASUS 5k are using Japanese made caps. So there should be no fear of bad cap leaking or exploding? I remember Gigabyte accusing ASUS of using cheap Caps that were leaking or not...
