Well... Im running Idle CPU temps at 40-41 degrees centigrade:P Temp inside the case is 29 degrees. Cant calculate water temps as of yet. Not exactly impressive... Im currently running pump->block->rad->res->pump. Dangerden maze3 block, GMC 10 3/4 x 5 5/8 x 2 heatercore with a 1inch steel shroud, 2 x panaflo L1A for the heatercore and 1 L1A blowing on the custom sealife T2 pump.
My pump primed in under an hour so that went relatively painlessly but wondering why my idle temps are so high... tightening the waterblock onto the cpu further just made my temps stay at 41 as opposed to range between 40-41. Im a little worried of tightening too much and destroying my processor.
One thing Ive noticed is some people are mentioning that if you use 2 heatercores in parallel you might be able to passively cool the system (fanless). Im really wondering how that could be possible. Just my pump alone with no fan running will get my water temps almost to boiling over a 24 hour period.
