Hello,

I'm looking for a cooling solution for overclocking my CPU. I know there are a whole section here but I haven't seen anything about Voltair V3 TEC cooler. It is already available at newegg:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835857001

I need to do intensive CPU usage for scientific calculation and overclocking an i7 970 (gulftown) 1 GHz above saves me 25% of the time (that means 54 instead of 72 hours per simulation), so instead of desiring more FPS, I just need something that can run warm (and won't turn on fire) unatended. For this reason I'm turning more in looking for the famous Noctua NH-D14 instead of a water cooling solution.

Today I saw the Voltair, but I'm reluctant to try it since there is zero, nada, none info.

Have someone tried it? Can someone recommend me any alternative?
Thanks.

Hello popatim,

Thank you for replying so quick. My case is not big enough to allow a WC radiator bigger than a single 12mm fan (it's an old CM 690 Nvidia edition), but since this problem is costing me human hours, I'm open to changing the case.
