I plan on overclocking to a mild degree with a custom water-cooling loop and I'm looking for some clarification on MOSFET cooling.
It is absolutely necessary to cool them or is it okay if you're not going over 1.3 volts on a Haswell CPU?
I'd rather not have to spend an extra £100-ish on a motherboard with MOSFET cooling capabilities as my budget has gone beyond my limit already but, if it's absolutely necessary, then I will change the motherboard I'm getting from the ASUS Maximus VII Hero to the VII Formula, but I'd really rather not.
