    Willing to bet two things here,
    1) It will let you go higher than 5.2Ghz especially if you use push/pull.
    2) Corsair is going to release a 360 AIO unit soon.

    was wondering when they start using 360 rads on these closed loop water coolers. im also looking forward for reviews ...but im sure they will be pricey.

    The guys at Origin really know what they are doing. They are the original Alienware builders that sold the company to Dell. I like their stuff. Big time.

    You can mount it on the back using a radbox or koolance klamp,works well,will also keep the ambient temps down in the case and you will always have cool air going through the rad and over the fins to Dissipate the heat(a common mistake made by Wookies with Watercooling setups).

    its a bit more difficult to mount a closed loop watercooling setup on the back with a rad box given that you cant exactly run the hoses through the watercooling grommets in most cases without breaking the loop and voiding the warranty. the only way you'd be able to run a closed loop triple rap on the outside is by either leaving the side panel open or by taking an angle grinder to the case to make a whole big enough to slide the rad through.

    the downside of it being a closed loop means that cm hafx owners cant really ninja this into the roof of the case like they could with a standard 360mm radiator since you'd have to stick this thing through one of the larger holes, so this setup will still end up sitting somewhere in the case.

    Ah i see,i forgot that you cant detatch the waterblock from the tubing to feed it through the gromits on the back(antec 1200 has these)even if you could it might not be long enough,these are potential problems you may have to look into,it may still work depending on your case and calculations....another reason why custom is so much better than these shoddy preinstalled factory based coolers,ah well i suppose it works for some.
