That's a nice set up. As long as you're getting fresh, cool air from the outside of the case, it's fine. Some of the Swiftech stuff pulls hot air from inside the case through the radiator.

Seems like your system is settling down and temps are normalizing. It does take a few days for the thermal compound to work into the grooves between the processor and heatsink.

Makes me want to go water in my rig also. I have an Aspire case. Not much room... I have all the hardware already.
