When you go to overclocker's site, click on >heatsink and watercooling link on the middle of the page for the results. Yes, I have the same heatsink and it is great (though my fan is a better 80mm tornado...) Still, it only holds true when your ambient temperature is reasonable. Turn the heater on in the room and raise your ambient above 25c and watch things go south. Watercooling is much less elastic to ambient temperature than air cooling. Hence, www.overclockers.com's statement only holds true when ambient temperature is below a certain level -- probably 25-28c. (After awhile, you're just blowing hot air...) ;) -elc.
