    How does the cooling system in the OCZ compare to Sager?

    I read the posts on the different cooling 'mods' that are out there, but in terms of delivered quality, does the OCZ compete well enough with Sager's renowned cooling capabilities in their rigs? The temps look really good that everyone is having so it leads me to believe that the cooling system is top notch... thoughts?

    I don't have actual numbers, but I have been very pleased with the cooling system. The fans will kick up when playing games but that's about it. I personally haven't seen the need to mod the cooling system at all. I've never used a Sager but have heard about the cooling systems in them, but I cant compare the two. I have been very pleased with how cool this runs.

    Sager has effective but laud cooling where OCZ is more quite but not as effective. My qx9300 idles around 45C now. There is no modification by the way.
