Got an i7 980x up to 4.5 on air and it's pushing it, trying to get it bumped up a bit more yet so it's time to make the move to water.

Currently it's has a Megahalem with 2 fans on it and it tends to do about 90c under heavy load. I want to get that down.

Price is not really a problem here, I need the very best block available, probably use a 360 rad on it, really hoping to get 5ghz out of it.

I know these are "pushing" your luck clock speeds, but the guy doesn't care, he needs it as fast as it can be 24/7 and if it fries in a year he doesn't care.

It's not mine.

And I make a pretty darn good living and don't have much of a cost of living, I blow a lot of money, a LOT of it, just not on computers.
