I have been thinking about this ever since I got it, it uses the stock cooler and never goes past 40 degrees celcius. Usually 30 ich. I am thinking about getting a diffrent cooler, possibly even water cooling. Is there acculy a point? What would the temps be under wc?

 

 

Thanks :)

Chances are the fan is temperature controlled. If you run a sustained load on it, the CPU will get hotter with faster fan speed and noisier. If you find that annoying, a better air cooler would be the best choice.

Water cooling an i3, just, no. No. My brain hurts.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.
