Another factor which is not considered here is that my pump has an 87watt ouput which is far hotter than an eheim or similar, what I'm trying to say is that my pump adds much more heat to the circulatory system than the average pump used in overclocking. How am I going to figure this into a rating?
while the input heat from the pump is a factor in overall system performance, it really has no impact on how well the block it's self works, that's why I didn't list an ambient temp with my data, just the water and idle/load, the only ones relavant to block performance. Cooling the water after the block is a seperate issue.

Billa would probably argue with me on this but I've chilled my water down to 10c and let it heat up to 35c and I still mantain the same water/idle/load deltas.
