I use a Swiftech pump with MRC220-QP radiator and koolance blue hp, the difference between air cooling is massive.
At stock speeds i7 will show temps between 14-22c in idle and under 4.4ghz overclock and full load only about 47c (with scythe mugen air cooler over 80c load and 35c idle).
And liquid nitrogen/helium are not real cooling solutions. They are only used for short term benchmarking records.

p.s. I didn't install RAM waterblocks in the loop as it seemed redundant, somebody could disagree, IMO it would be just a waste.
