What did I mean by what ??
By posting that topic ? Well just couple of thoughts. I don't think cooling is sth that worst SO MUCH time to spend on it -> personal opinion.
When we started with athlons, it was unusually hot CPU (literally) even with all these weird (so it looked then) coolers, so one experienced dude said "Relax, If you can touch the heat sink, CPU is just fine".
I can't remember single case when sth screwed up, because standard cooling was used.
