I don't think you can include all pump heat into calculation. What amount of heat is dissipated by pump case at air?

I measured a maximum current draw of 1.02 A (12 watts) when water flow was at its maximum and 0.71 A (8.5 watts) when the pump was operating at deadhead with no flow.

Both Harddrives WCed = 18 watts

NF4 chipset = 20 watts (guess).
Would all heat of this stuff to go into loop? Or good amount of heat is dissipated by air?

Anyway it is a good rig. Congrats.
