I've managed to get my i5 2500k to 5GHz on air with a Cooler Master 212 with a push-pull situation with the fans, but I'm starting to get really high temperatures when torture testing and it's worrying me.
Someone suggested that Corsair H80 water system, but I checked and to me it kinda seems like a toy (i.e. compare a cap gun to a real gun).
Another person told me I might get even high temperatures if I use a that Corsair H80, saying it's really no better than a good air cooler.
Does anyone have any information on this? I want to stay at 5GHz but the temperatures are getting a little too hot for my liking.

Those two speed fan controls on the bottom left default all the time and they don't work anyway, so don't worry about the fact they're 100% on the top picture and 27% on the bottom.
