i7-3770k Water Cooling [Question]

I have been wondering about getting Water cooling for awhile now,

With my i-7-3770k what will i be able to overclock to if i want to run around 50°C 

Im Curretly On 4.2 GhZ @ 40-50 °C 

Will i get alot better preformance or a minor increase, and is it worth it too get water cooling?

 

 

Thanks

It's worth it. Get an AIO water cooler.

 

You will get a higher overclock with a water cooler because water is a better conductor of heat than air, but that is very scientific and I won't get into that, but yes, water cooling is worth the price.

The h100i is very similar in terms of performance to the Noctua NHD-14

Hmm. I do suppose that if you are going balls to the walls water cooling may be a good option, however.

Water cooling is about sexiness not temps to me xD, are you talking AIO or custom loop?

Your CPU might not go much higher, regardless of the temperature. It's luck of the draw .

You guys are crazy. You know you guys are self-destructive. There's a funny farm somewhere and it's got your names written all over it. But I'm gettin' outta here.
