still costs $50 less than the gigabyte 3d galaxy watercooling kit but gives cooling comparable, thats not a bad thing, some people dont feel comfortable putting water in their pc's so why not spend as much (or less in this case) on an air cooler which gives similar perf? i like it and would pay $80 for it now tbh hate my scythe ninja, only thing is i live in the uk and would probably have to pay more like $120 (£60 in the uk approx) when it comes here
