The Seven Up can was a perfect prop, what a monster!
Thanks for the review.
Liquid cooling gets you 6 degrees, why bother.
Must be a benefit having all those extra fans in the case too (assuming they not vibrating too much )

There are benefits to full on custom water, but if you only look at CPU temps, not so much.

The big upsides to sealed loop systems is there are no restrictions on RAM and access to the motherboard. Air cooelers like the Frio Extreme, NH-D14, Phanteks PH-TC14PE... all very nice coolers, all block most the top half of a full ATX motherboard, and have bigger foot prints than an mITX motherboard LOL

all in what you want to run, and how you want to run it.

That cooler looks big enough to push an ultralight, or at least a swamp buggy

Thermaltake used to be a dominant player in the PC aftermarket community. Then they fell behind with dated designs and ones that flatout didn't work. Glad to see them starting to get their act together but at a Benjamin I'd rather go with the Phanteks PH-TC14PE.
