LOL! The goal is to be CoolDude when it comes to this stuff I think.
So here's something I'm curious about. Since the H100 is supposedly a sealed unit, and you lost and 8 core CPU because it leaked fluid . . . will Corsair reimburse you for this failure of their part, or is sealed loop water cooling just as "on your own" as a DIY water cooling kit?
Update on Cheetah: Looking good so far, must have not been running that high of temp for too long before I walked in the office. Thankful about that! I put another fan in there, and have 5 of the 6 cores cranked up on PG LLR again, and it's stable at 40C. This is stock 3.3GHz right now. I'll let her run like that overnight and if no problems, we'll add the 6th core back in and then slowly take the O/C up again. Hopefully it was just a good scare and not out anything but a case fan.
PS - never realized just how much work that upper exhaust fan is doing!
