I'm at like 50c idle with it sorta warm in here, getting spooky..Going to melt one of these days. That HSF looks..unique..hehe. Might grab one of them, unless anyone else has some input against it or that another's better..The reviews I saw on the Jet didn't seem too great.

can you find Thermal Take V12 where you live ? it's arround 30 euros. there is also TT pipe101 which I would also recommend.

as for Jet 7, I had bad experience with it, had it for few days and got me TT11+ . Maybe it's just me anyway....
