I am particularly concerned about the temps in any i7 920 oc machine I would buy. What exactly does the Frostbite cooling setup consist of? I haven't been able to find any reviews that would give me an idea of how effective the water cooling system would be compared to, say, the Noctura, which appears to be the best air cooling option offered by DS from the reviews I have seen.

Also, does anyone who has an overclocked i7 920 from DS with FrostBite cooling know their cpu load temps, voltages and clock speed? I'm very worried about how hot i7s get while seriously OCed and I want to be sure it will be kept sufficiently cool. Ditto on the air cooling options, would anyone mind posting their temps, etc if they have such a system on air?

Secondly, I think either the HAF 932 or 922 would be the best case for me to get. I am particularly concerned about temps, and from what I have read those two cases are not terribly loud while having great cooling performance. Size is not really a factor, but I haven't looked into the other two options for cases and am wondering if that is a mistake. Again, anyone willing to provide data on the temperatures in their systems at load would be so helpful to me making my decision.

Thanks in advance!

for gaming you don't need a 4.0GHz oc nor will you see any gain from it, the same goes for ram speed.

frostbite consists of some of the best parts (rad,block,pump,etc) and its a great system, it offers the best temp out of all the options.

each chip is different so what one person has as temps vcore and etc on one chip will have nothing to do with how the next chip is so you can't compare to other's systems.

932 is the best, but most of your noise comes from the fan on your gpus, they accont for 90% of your noise.

I would either go with 2 x 275 or wait for the new nvidia cards to come out.
