bah! testing first, polishing second

now this is really bizzare, I don't get it at all.

what I was using previously was my 1/2'' fitting "carved out" block (which is my best performing block to date) with a small 700L/H pump (around 500L/H system flow) this is cooling a P4 1.8a@2.64, 1.8v, 11 degrees above water temp at idle and 14 degrees above under load.

now this new block, with my big 2800L/H pump up it's butt, pushing 3 times the flowrate of the previous setup, is getting exactly the same temps! (+- a degree or so)

I still have to muck around with the exact mounting of the block, but the P4's a far more forgiving in this area than the athlons...

Oh I'm using a pretty large volume of water in the system, so the larger pump putting more heat into the water isn't an issue at this stage.

Mabie the P4 simply isn't generating enough heat to show a difference? :shrug:
