i'll start out with all the revelant specs

axp 1600+ aroia 0213 y
OCed to 1.57ghz (150fsb) default voltage
iwill kk266-r (kt133a)
2x256 mushkin rev3+
gf3 ti200 @ 210/480
audigy
kingston nic

spir@l original with bolt on cold plate
dtek heater core using dually shouds
2x120mm panaflow M1As
eheim 1250
172w pelt @ approx 16-18v
1/2" silicon tubing
samlex sec 1223 psu (small reho turned to max for highest voltage output)

ambient: 24C
case: 25C
load: 30C
idle: 26-27C

ok i just set this up. yeah i know i'll get a new mobo with ddr soon enough, once i get the cash. i just burnt up my axia 1.0 not seating the waterblock correctly but thats another story

load temps with that axia 1.0 @ 1.2 max vCore was about 35C with ambient at 25C straight water cooling....

those temps seem quite unusually high for a system like this... espically a 172w @ ~18v. the XPs should be throwing out that muc heat... or am i mistaken? i was expect just about ambient load temps but not 5 above.

when i put the cold plate on i cross-tightened all 4 bolts quite tightly... hell i even heard some faint cracking noises when i did it.... i hope i didnt damage the pelt. the cold plate gets cold before i turn the system on fine but it does take a little while longer than i expected tho.

i havnt run a pelt system for about 14 months now so i gotta get reaquainted with the whole setup.
