My machine is running warm.
I was looking at liquid coolers.

Is the 80 worth the extra money?
Thanks guys!

I installed my first liquid cooler, a Kraken X41, a few months ago and I'm pretty happy with it. It allows my i7-4790K to run all-out at 4.4Ghz with moderate noise and much better temps than previously with a Cooler Master 212 EVO. It's a bit more expensive than the ones you're looking at... usually between $95 and $105: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-cpu-cooler-rlkrx4101
I've heard mixed reviews of Corsair coolers, you may want to look at Cooler Master for comparison. Good luck!!
Check http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/cpu-cooler/#w=1&m=11. You can save a few bucks. I have a Corsair 80i and it is now about a year old and running fine. I did change the fans to a model that is quieter but everything else works great.

I have 6 I7-3930k crunchers running with the H100i. Been using them for 18 months now and haven't had any issues. I can't answer your question directly ... I prefer to have more margin so I personally would go with the H80.
So I wanted the 100, so I bought a new case (my old one was too small) and now I have better air flow too

Thanks Bryan. So far so good. It dropped from 100 degrees (scary) to 71, so they are obviously making a huge difference and about 15 degrees lower at idle.
Yeah definitely got in the 3 digit range this time around. I am sure no one else on this board has ever experienced this either
