Wehn I had a Rampage 3 Formula, I thought about picking up a H70. The reason is with a Mega Shadow on it, the heatsink (+fans) completely blocked air flow to the VRM and IOH sinks. With an H70 or something or other water cooling yout can install side panel fans that will blow directly on those sinks helping you out with OCing.
that being said, I doubt it would be much of an issue because I do not know if the H70 could keep up with a 4.7+ GHz i7. In my testing for max air clocks I was running an open bench design and had to find a way to setup fans blow on the IOH. Other boards might not this issue, and if you do not run in the top PCIEx16 slot, then it doubly is not an issue.
