    At $50 for closed loop liquid, its a good price. Considering how some heatsink & fan combos that cool like that cost more, this is a good deal. On the plus side, less noise, and since it's not like traditional liquid, no maintenance is really needed.
     
  2. the h50 is about $70

    Last I checked it was 59 with a $10 MIR. Either way, good air cooling costs about the same, but with more noise then the h50.
     
  4. oh is that so... :O

    I didn't opt for liquid cooling on my setup, so i didn't realize the cost and the maintenance was so cheap on that liquid cooling setup..
     
  5. where exactly do you see it going for $60? usd?

  10. nooo.. can't mess with those big ass heatsinks.. Ya know i'd imagine they'd warp the hell out of your motherboard considering how much weight they got to 'em.

    I might get the h70 if its on sale, but then I don't think it'll be quieter since it's got 2 fans..

    It's about 2.7 lbs...just make you mount it on properly I guess.
