Hi All

Im Consdering upgrading my FX8350 to a FX9590.

Eventually i will be installing a watercooling loop in my rig. However in the meantime it will be air cooled.(not overclocked)

I will have the setup in the following case

NXZT Switch 810
ROG crosshair v formula Z mobo
With Minimum 7 140mm fans
Using the following CPU cooler (Prolimatech Red Megahalems) 2 x120mm push/pull fans
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-027-PL
Running Crossfire Asus HD 7970 Matrix Platinum
And RAIDR Express PCI 240GB SSD

Ive heard mixed reports about this CPU, have seen some claim its 100% fine with a good cpu cooler.

just looking info from people who have got this aircooled and if its a reasonable increase on the FX8350

thanks
