I FUCKING WASTED 10 HOURS AND $40 TODAY. FUCK YOU FATE AND/OR FORTUNE AND/OR PROBABILITY AND/OR HEISENBURG UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE.

So I picked up a used H100 on Craigslist for $70. (I did buy a new one a few months ago, but it had the noisy pump problem and I had to return it).

I had to dremel my case to fit it in, but it's really quite amazing. I have it running on low; it's much quieter than my 212+ Evo (and supposedly even quieter than the Intel stock cooler at stock voltage). I bumped up my 2500K to 4.9GHz and temps are a comfortable 63/71/72/69.

Hopefully I'll be using the H100 for years to come.

Finally, I got my 2500K to 5.0GHz. 1.45V (offset +0.06), 1.44V under load, temps 30 idle, in the high 70s under OCCT. H100 cooler. I'm good until Haswell.
