I like the Big Momma, but it is so small

What do you consider to be big?
Re: Coolant temp
I got a coolant probe from Dtek when I got my BigMama clone. Its 10 Kohm so I will plug it into my 5 1/4 drive bay display eventually, but for now I have it on the 3rd probe socket of my A7V. According to it my coolant is nearly always at 33C while my motherboard is at 32C with ~70watts heat.
That doesn't mean my coolant is only 1C above abient. My MB temps are not room temp, but rather from some hot part of my board. According to my external probes my room is about 29.7C. I have yet to test the accuracy of the probes, but I doubt its off by more then a few degrees.
The probe is located directly before my radiator BTW, so it measures my coolant at its hottest point. However with a 318 GPH Eheim and at least 1/2 inch tubing the whole way, the coolant moves fast enough that I doubt a delta T of more then a degree exists anywhere in my coolant.
