Any reason for upgrading from the A50 to start off with? It's a pretty decent cooler to be honest. Theres no point buying a bundle if you are just gonna replace one of the items immediately unless you speak to OcUK directly and try and replace the cooler with something else and still get a decent chip + slight discount out of it.

This... They may be able to switch out the A50 for another cooler..

Also what case is it going to go into ?? would it be big enough for a SA or Noctua ?
