Your Maze4 isn't the best waterblock around but it is low resistance. You may well run into a situation where you upgade CPU block and then have to upgrade pump and then need more rad ad infineum.
I would suggest that you post a picture of your cooling loop. We can then find any plumbing issues that might keep you from getting the most out of your system. Then I'd suggest trying out reversing the fan on your radiator to get fresh outside air into the rad. If that makes a big difference then maybe you could fashion some kind of duct from the front 5.25" bays to the heatercore so it gets outside air?

gives 97.55W for a 2400+ at 2.4ghz 1.8V

phaestus i'd have thought that since the maze4 responds so well to higher flow (as your test revealed) a mag3 was a good bet given how cheap it is...
