Even if their test results are right - and tbh, tl;dw the whole thing and I find it hard to take that guy seriously because he has the distinct air of a virgin who still lives with his parents - they used the stock fans, which are noisy. Plus I still reckon having a massive warm lump of metal blocking off a load of air flow within your case is not great for your overall system thermals, CPU aside.
Also I'm pretty sure that the failure of my last motherboard had quite a bit to do with a combination of it not having a key motherboard screw hole and having the weight of a massive Thermalright Ultra 120 hanging off it...
The H60 does the job for me anyway.

@Fox @Stonehedge I already have a Corsair H80. Believe it or not the noctua is actually better at cooling and quieter.

The aio is cleaner looking, I admit, but I don't look inside my case much...
