So on top of my i7 3770k, I have a phanteks PH-TC14PE 140mm UFB Cpu cooler
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Here are some stats from that
700 RPM - 1200 RPM +/- 10% w/ PWM
45.1 CFM - 78.1 CFM w/ PWM
UFB (Updraft Floating Balance)

I was considering upgrading to this H110 All-in-one liquid cooler

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
1500 +/-10% RPM
94 CFM

I wanted to ask the community weather or not this would be a good upgrade, or if my cpu cooler is already performing as well as the liquid cooler would. It is a very high performance air cooler so I thought I would ask, although the liquid cooler looks like a good upgrade. Thank you to anyone that responds!

Just bought that for my PC but I'm waiting for it to arrive from the reviews and other things I've seen it's pretty good.

You'd see a negligible improvement in temperature with the H100 over the Phanteks. The money you'd pay for it wouldn't be cost effective as you've already got a top of the line air cooler, and unless you want it for another reason, i'd avoid it this time.

Don't bother unless you want to push the overclock more, the difference won't be massive.
