Think Super Si was doing a watercooled setup, might be worth speaking to him.
not far off.
I think for ever 10mph wind it is 1 degree Celcius cooler.
Its not so much the air cooling that the fans do, they are mearly shifting the hot air inside the case outside.

yes, but on a hot day they are drawing warm air into the case in the first place. I guess for majority of pcs its perfectly adequate, if i built a beast rig would defo watercool though.

Seriously cpu paste is not a vital necessity ona modern cpu, not saying its not recommended, anything to aid cooling is advisable, but its certainly not vital on todays chips, and not putting any on wont cause overheating as discussed above
you dumb idiot  Thermal paste is extremely important, regardless of what it is!
