Default Pump heat

I turn my pump off to fill my resovoir pretty much everyday. a day or 2 ago I decided to leave it off while I slept. I had accidentally done it many times and figured why not. So off it went. I checked my idle temps a while later only to discover they ahd dropped! My CPU temp dropped about 5 degrees adn my mobo temp dropped about 2. I went to sleep and the next morning checked again. Only to discover they had fallen lower yet. It now is running wiht a few IE windows, Trillian, and MIRC at about 89F. At Idle it runs at about 87F that is 9 degrees cooler then with my pump on(pump on idles at 96) Now before you say that is still warm my room temp is normally 80 degrees and I accidentally forgot to set my voltage back when I clocked my chip back. So my voltage modded KT7A is running the chip at 2.3Vs for 100mhz oc! I have to restart someday and fix that but darn if I don't hate losing uptime. By the way my pump is a Danner model 5 500GPH. I know the probe isn't wrong cause my coolant lines right next to the block are cool.
