yea it helps, you just made sure that my concerns are more than real. I get 72 C with -t 2, you don't want to know what is happening when i am going -t 3 or -t 4 (i think i have seen 97 C once and i had to close it before start smelling 
)
I am sure i need at least the Corsair H55 but it's way more expensive than i though, it's probably a good investment neither the less.

Ouch! Sounds like the current cooler is a bit off or needs a refresh on the thermal paste. In any case, cooling is good, more cooling, better, can't have enough! But enough about liquid nitrogen, reality! That Corsair H55 is about the cheapest you can get, and was the first liquid unit I ever got. Now doing a good job cooling my 7950. It is however, about the cheapest unit you can get. Entry level on liquid is still about $60-$70, but it's worth it! I've never looked back and wouldn't use anything but. The performance on even the low-end units like that Corsair is superior to anything but the best (and most very expensive) air units. You will be spending about $50 anyways on a superior air unit. Other advantages... that Corsair unit replaced a Coolermaster V10. You know how big those things are? This big...

Ye-gads! Aiee! And the Corsair unit outperformed it. Never looked back. Here's a few minor factoids for you to help you choose your new toy (and you are gonna get one, right?) Your rads are measured by width, so a "240" will be 240mmX120mm, a 280 is 280mmX140MM, and so on. Heat dissipation is mostly by area so if you can get a cheap 240, gravy. Think of it as basically boosting your cpu, because you'll get a lot more performance out of it. I'm SO glad to have my water unit back in action because now instead of worrying if I"m pushing it, I'm happily cranking away at 5.0 Ghz. 20% more machine!
