Yea I lucked out on the cpu to a certain degree, I've had it to close to 2.6 but needed the water to be under 22c for that to be stable, so I knocked it back a bit. Your block is quite a bit larger than mine, and you have double my flow rate, so yours had better be getting lower temps. I'm running a 15L res, so those temps are related to the water temp before it got the chance to heat up the water. I don't fold or anything (shame on me) so my cpu is idle most of the time.
so what was your coolant to load delta? mines 13c, if from the data in your earlier post (30c water, 45c load) you have a delta of 15 with a higher V-core, that sounds about right.That data still correct? [edit] the way I see it, is that we're both getting close to the limit of what can be done with straight water, we either have to chill the water, or try and reduce the delta between the water and cpu, I'm tempted to try direct die but I'm too chicken at this stage, add to that that I think the cpu-heatspreader interface may be the limiting factor...[/edit]

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?

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.

Heat added to the water by pump is affecting the delta T, but only because it's influating water temperature and here come in the radiator, to dump that heat, but for evaluating block performance you need constant water temps of X, and constant flow of Y, if you can assure that, then you can talk how different blocks perform. Of course higher water temp just makes higher idle/load temps, delta T is the same for particular water block.

360gph I just got around to doing a flow test on my custom built watercooling and it takes 10 seconds to fill a gallon ice cream pail this is with everything hooked up in the loop, block, res, pump, heatercore. Here's a pic of the custom test bucket I had to make to do the test with everything hooked up.

Heh, impressive , you should make your self a twister, you have the flow rate for it, would be cool with the 4 outlets from the block creating it
I recon you could do one about 8-10'' in dia, and 20 or so inches high with that kind of flow.

360gph in the system with all the equipment is definately a high flow rate. With a flow rate like that I doub't you'll see any differance in temperatures with the pump making 87w

Ever thought about selling one of your blocks, or possbily making an AMD block for a fan

I'd be not telling the truth if I said the thought never crossed my mind But let's not put the cart before the horse, I need more copper first and it's on its way

Nice to know there may be hope. Just let me know if you really want to sell one. I'ce be intrested in your AL or CU design. Both are extremely professional looking.
