I'm running i7 @ 4.0 HT on in a matx case - 85 degrees cores max flat out (8 threads IBT).

I'm hoping that I can hold 4.2 with the H70 with less than 70 degrees . . .

Corsair is so smart lol, swap the rad on the H50 for a slightly thicker one, add a fan that probably cost them next to nothing, up the price by $30, and we all go gaga.

What's your cooler now? But expecting to OC more and a 15 degree drop is too optimistic IMO.

Why don't you wait for a review. The performance may be as the corsair chart shows, or it could be a whopping 1 degree better than the H50. It's not like it's going to be any quieter, if anything it will be louder than air coolers with the same fan arrangements because of the addition of pump noise.... except it will also cost more.... you know the more I think about it this thing has to beat a D14 by 10c to not be a total failure. Makes me wonder why anyone would have bought the H50, I mean I still see people trading decent parts for that crap in the b/s/t section.

Not going to happen unless you live in Antarctica or a very cold climate. I am running a full custom loop. 2 2x120 dual pass rads, swiftech gtz, 8 120mm fans push/pull and I still hit 75C in OCCT. With my below specs. There is NO WAY the h70 will compete with that.

It still blows my mind how much heat the i7 line makes once oc'd past 4.0Ghz compared to my old Q9650. I wasn't ready for it and had to buy better fans and do several other mods.

Yes but it's a cool and efficient 5870 and never goes above 40c and that is with the below settings.

Only in OCCT though. In games I rarely exceed 68c on the CPU. Idle's in the low 40's.

H70 is very nice and will be a good answer to those massive heatsink/fans we are seeing now.

It's annoying that I can not stability test at 4.2 as it boots and runs fine.

Mine will never see 85 core temp as during gaming max I have seen is 65 . . .

That's 2 fan on the H70 vs 1 fan on the H50 though, unless I'm mistaken.

If you plop 2 fans on the H50, difference should be around 5 degrees.

The H70 does not seem to be worth the cost for me, simply adding some shitty oem fan onto a H50 should make the performance difference so small the monetary difference is not worth it.

May as-well get something awesome if your spending that much I say.
