OK.. did some extensive (8 hour)testing. Here are the results:

Room Temp: 24C

Water Temp: PC Off, Pump On, No Fan: 29C
PC Idle 8 hours: 27C
PC Load 8 hours: 29C

CPU Temp: PC Idle 8 hours: 28C
PC Load 8 hours: 47C

Well, it doesn's seem like a radiator problem. I am on gettin 2 degrees C diff from idle to full load on my fluid temperature.

It just seems weird that my CPU is 1C above water temp at idle, but 18C above water temp at full load.

Could this be a flow problem? Or is this difference expected? I know some of you said it is OK, but how do some people claim to get a 5C difference in CPU temp from idle to load?

Thanks for all of your help...
