O RLY? I have ATX systems running both on AC/WC when it comes to cooling.
The lowest ACed temp system I am running here has 2x120mm fans mounted on side panel to intake air. While 2x80mm fans mounted on back case to out take air, 1x80mm on the HD bay, 1x80mm CPU fan, 2x80mm PSU fan, 2x43mm vents in PCI ext slot outing air. With this I get 31C cpu temp on full load, 29C sys temp, depending on the HD that is being used I get 27C running or 22C idle, but his system sounds like a jet engine.
Now here comes WCed sealed glass case system. With just 2x80mm PSU fan and 1x80mm fan mounted on HD bay. Using the pumps case on ram, cpu, single baseOS hd, with built in exs on the raditor for circulation air insied the sealed case. I get 4-8C cpu temp depending on the scaled cpu speed based on min, nml, max load avg. The case temp is 17C thanks to exs favor, while the base OS is 14C but all other hds is between 20-22C.
PS: I am not a cooling junkie nor I waste my time playing games but I have some very adv systems just at home as mini-cluster. Also I am in FL so my weather plays overall key role.
