You state that higher flow makes a lesser temp diff in the wb but that's not why higher flow is better.
Exactly

Here is an example (all numbers are made up, but will hopefully demonstrate what I mean)

Lets say you have a setup with no rad, using tapwater and never use the same watermolecule again. At first we have a high flow 0.3 of lps and a CPU temp of 30C. Then we lower the flow to 0.03 and the temp rises to 40C.
The equation shows that the rise in temperature in outletwater will for a normal CPU=80W be:
80/(4180*0.3)=0.06C
80/(4180*0.03)=0.6C
So the outlet water will be 0.54 degrees hotter with the lower flow and the CPU will be 10C hotter.
The mere increase in watertemp alone can't produce the higher CPU temp.
So the lower CPU temp can't be a result of the lower temp diff between inlet and outlet as many people tend to think but rather a effect of the WB having better thermal transferproperties at a higer flow.

1 - if you're here to flame ppl and dont understand humour go to [H] you dont belong here.
I never flamed anyone i simply asked you to stop assuming others not to understand all great things you have learned in school.
I learned a whole lot during my 8 years at the Royal Institute of Technology (Swedens version of MIT) so I know exactly what school's like and all the great thing you can learn there.
But telling everybody that I have the knowledge and don't share it isn't very productive.

Humor in my world isn't statments like:
I know a whole lot of stuff about thermodynamics but i'm not going to post them here because the are to hard to understand anyway. Just belive my word. Higer flow is better.
Statements like that are totally useless.

I think if you are going to have an attitude, learn to clarify a bit better.
On the subject of attitude:
Making a post clear and easy to read/understad produces a very long post and many ppl tend to ignore those. So in keeping a post short many ppl will read it but at the price of everybody not understanding all. So making the first post short but provocative (using words like BS and crap) usually produces a high number of replys and then try and elaborate after that usually works.
Some ppl on the other hand (not referring to anyone) simply sees the words BS and crap and therfore feel offended and don't take their time to read and understand what the poster want's to say.
Which is a problem with this type of posting approach.

Everyone=all ppl posting here:
One thing to remember is that not everyone here has english as their default language. So please try and read post's twice because we that don't know exactly what word to use, to make the message come forward the way we intended, might seem to have an attitude but perhaps only lacks the finer tune of the english language.

Well I'll leave you guys alone for the moment (4 weeks of vacation starting in 5h. So I'll just check back in in august to see if there has been any progress.

cheers
