Default Problems with current setup.

I currently run a duron 600 at 900 with about 1.6 v with temps in the mid 40s according to my kt7. I have a polyblock with a circular copper block and aluminum heatsink inside which runs with a rio 180? and some coiled copper tubing (because i am cheap). i use water stuff that is pink from napa like water wetter and have a tupperware container to hold the water cause it was only 1.50

problems
i upgraded my bios and the temps went up
i installed win2000 and my temps went up again. has anyone noticed this before?? i realize they are not that accurate but now i am running it at only 650 and getting temps up to 42 when i use my cpu a lot. it used to be down in the lower 30s.

how do i clean out my polyblock? i think that may be a problem as i ran it for a while without the antiocorrosion stuff in.

i am going to replace all my tubes and get a new radiator, probably a stacked plate, but i can't spend much money. any advice on cheap alternatives or actual places to buy them???

also, MEMPHIS, are you from mephis?

thanks in advance.
