Hi

I have the following setup:

Cooler master 120m with AS5
2600k @ 4.6 @ 1.392-1.404 (this is what LLC goes to under load (LLC at extreme))
Ga-z77x-ud5h
32gb of crucial ballistix @ 1866

Ambient is around 25c and temps average 70-72c (with spikes to 78-79 occasionally) under prime 95 1344 1792.

I have my eye on the nzxt kraken x40. Would you go for it or leave it where it is?
 
I'd stick with what you got, maybe pull a little voltage and maybe 100MHz. You don't need a 4.6GHz CPU man.
