The Asetek Liquid CPU cooler is just LC for the sake of saying it is LC. It isn't exactly known for its construction quality or reliability either. Its cooling pales terribly compared to real LCing, even good air coolers such as either of the Noctua models offered by DS will outperform it, especially the larger Noctua NH-D14. Select one of the Noctua coolers instead.

Noctua is the way to go there my man, Asetek is not real liquid cooling, its just some water running around your pc in tubes, whereas Noctua is probably the best air cooling out there.
