zalman reserators

i had my old i7 920 running the reserator xt and had that clocked to 4.2 and it coped quite well. also had my old e8400, asus striker 2 and 2x gtx 280 cooling off it before hand and was fine temp wise also
temps on gfx card were a lot better! when on air running benchmarks on the 280 gtx's i used to hit over 100 regular with the water blocks and the reserator i was in the 65-70's
i have to admit i would go custom loop tho as it looks nicer and preforms better!

Currently have a modded* reserator 1+ serving my 2600K while I'm mid-build re-fitting my new radiators.
Down-clocked to 4.3ghz to play it safe, max stress temps are ~55c, though I didn't bother playing with the voltage so its still at 1.39v from my 5ghz clock.
*Modded = removed fitted pump, sealed un-needed holes with silicone using an internal D5 pump, 7/16 ID tubing and Raystorm CPU block.
I wouldn't be too comfortable adding a GPU into the loop using just the reserator to get rid of the heat.
