The H80s have an issue with the fan controller, as in, you push the button and the controller dies. Go with a Thermaltake Water2.0 Pro, it's a better unit.

I have no complaints about my H100. I don't think he H80 would be too far off from this.

I'd grab the H80 if you can find a deal or if you want to spend more get a real Rasa kit.

Antec Khuler 620 is a good option too - can get these around $30 after rebate from time to time.

VERY effective cooler, even more so when you push/pull mod it.

I agree, best cooler for the money, I have used it in (2) customer builds and both run great with 100% load temps that barley crack 60C @ 4.3 with indoor ambient around 22C

This is with 2600K's, the 37770K may run a bit warmer at those clocks

But bang for the buck I believe the 620 with decent push pull is one of if not the best value on the market, but still like the Rasa for $ 130.00 for overclockers, my builds went out at 4.3 for 24/7 use to people that will never touch the BIOS ..... to push to a 4.5 to 4.7 24/7 the 620 may leave you wanting more

Good luck

Wow. At that price you should have gone the H100.

Well, best of luck, can't say that we didn't give you advice though.

I'd say it'd come with one - especially since they're asking $99 for one!

Good luck with the H80, I'm sure you'll be fine. Though I'm just a bit concerned you overspent as an Antec Khluer for $30 with a push pull fan will probably do the same job as the H80 for a significantly smaller price.

At that price, I'm REALLY tempted to grab the Rasa on my next check.
