Sorry mate we cant really answer those questions as each system has different mileage in it depending on many variables. That Kit should cool the CPU for 4.6ghz+ but other than that its impossible to say.

Each CPU OCs differently too - even 2 of the same model CPU can OC very differently.

Exacttly and evan more so now the memory controller is within the CPU its self.

Which XPSC kit are you looking at; the more expensive one will provide the best cooling with the better pump and radiator.

Since you can fit the 360 I suggest you look at the Swiftech systems until you are truly versed in the WC arena.
