Sorry, I should have a sig ...

Ah, well. Its an Antec 550w PSU.

System boots at 12x200 1.75vCore idle 44C.

I will modify to a parallel system, I guess
RBX (has to be first ...)/NV68/NB/RES/RAD/PUMP ?

I'll use the Y spitter to join the two pipes out of the RBX into 1 before hitting the NV68. At the same time I'll reseat the CPU (again !).

The system "did" work great with the Maze4 GPU. I guess the NV68 must be more restrictive or is dumping more heat into the system.

Maxxxracer - Just in laymans terms, whats making the system restrictive ? Is it the RBX block ?

Theres a pic in the Gallerys section of a system with the same blocks (except the NV68) and it uses the same route I have at the mo (NB/GPU in parallel) but the only addition is its a 2 pump 2 rad system (page 7 I think ...).
