I OC'd my 8350 to 5.1 ghz. But once I surpassed 4.6 ghz, my room turned into a furnace. This baby will get exponentially hotter. The best closed loop available is the Swiftech H220-X. You can expand on it later too, which is pretty cool. Make sure your room is well ventilated.

The cooling market/products hasn't changed much in the last year. Water coolers are still the best cooling solution. Everyone sais Corsair H100i, but there are other brands out there. I like the Corsair and built a couple PC's with them because it has a lot of features and good cooling fans on the H100i.

I think last year, I had OC'd it to 4.7 ghz to run at around 65°C full load on a Corsair H80. Add about 2 to 3 degrees for every .1 ghz overclock after that. Given that I live in Dallas, Texas during summer, you bet my room was hot as Hades.

According to the laws of thermodynamics, a more effective liquid cooling unit like the H220-X will not only keep your CPU cooler, but the radiator will also have a higher heat output. The fact you live up in New York makes the concern near null.

All in all, good luck and have fun, bud.
