pricing?? if it is indeed as good as that video. i consider 80c on a 980x at 4.6GHZ damn good from a single rad cooler. I may considering getting one to relieve the stress on the motherboard from the big heatsinks. Also is it possible to change the fans??

intels run a lot hotter (especially their 6 cores! 12 threads pushes some heat), but they run stable at a lot hotter temps than the AMD chips do.

Because the U.S and Canada is largely made up of Immigrants. What is an "American" name or "Canadian" name?

FYI, it's not pronounced as in "cool" (kʊʟ), but as in german "kühl" (kyl). Even though the meaning is the same, I don't think that the German speaking people refer to something being "kühl". They either say for example "toll", or they use "cool" instead (assuming they 'imported' that word, like the Dutch and Flemish).

The average English speaking customer will take no note of that though and I think that's the whole point

EDIT: maar ik begrijp je punt heus wel
