benchmarks, but gaming was in the mid 70's at stock speed hence the move to watercooling, now seeing mid 60's in gaming and mid 70's in benchmarks (@4.4ghz)

Cheers both - keep stock cooler?

Stock will do but I ended up going 360 AIO for the new case I got. You'll not be doing any overclocking on the stock cooler. You can buy the better stock cooler for £20ish if you're mad keen on it.

I'm using custom watercooling from ek, 2 360mm pe classic rads (one for cpu and one for gpu), regarding my cpu no way on earth i'd be able to run mine at 4.4ghz below 360mm cooling with out sounding like a vacuum cleaner

Ok thanks I was thinking of water cooling the cpu only as I've got some bits left over from before don't want to do graphic card this time though and not sure if I want a big air cooler on cpu either was thinking of the ek 've 420 rad
