Default water-x cpu cooler run data

I have a water-x cpu cooler which I purchased at 1coolpc and have found the following results. I am running a xp2100 chip which is one of AMDs hottest running chips. I have an asus mb. a A7V8X kt400 chip set with ddr400 and an 8xagp card. My ambient room temp remains quite high so I decided to test out the water-x cpu cooler to see if it could handle higher temps better than a air cooler. With the stock fan I had higher cpu temps so I modified the water-x like it shows at 1coolpc , here is some typical data I got using a tornado 84 cfm cooling fan;

cpu at 5% load and warmed up
60c cpu temp./37c mb temp./28c air temp.

100% continuous cpu load
64c cpu temp/39c mb temp/28c air temp

I think the data speaks for itself. It liked to run in the 60s c range but it did run fairly stable. I would like to see more water pump through put with the fan remaining on top and bigger cap radiator to match pump greater flow.
