I am currently using an h100i all in one liquid cooling unit direct die mounted on a 3770k and am not very happy with it. Even before de-lidding my 3770k, it never seemed to put enough pressure on my cpu. i swapped out the stock stand offs that came with it for some mother board stand offs and screws. i use arctic silver 5, which is my preferred paste, and yes, i know how to apply it properly. the temps are nice and low, about 67 celcuis at max load on prime 95 and intelburn test, but after about a month, it seems to go back to not having enough pressure on the cpu, max around 80 celcius then. I then have to take it off, bend the metal mounts back a bit. Looking for a new cooling unit, any suggestions? Now that i got a second 780ti, i would like to overclock higher
