Well, not having access to a "Lab quality" temperature meter... I have simply used several commercially available thermometers and averaged the results.

Once that was done at idle and under load I "adjusted" my MBM5 software to compensate. As stated before the sensors on most motherboards are neither accurate or placed in very good spots.

I then remeasured my temps with the external thermometers (yes they had thermister probes) and verified that my MBM5 temps were within 1 degree C.

I will see if I can obtain a temp meter from the lab and bring it home to verify.

My ambient air temperatures in my apartment range from 21° C to 25° C this is also based on those same external thermometers.

I have not directly monitored the water temperature, so I guess I can't give numbers for that. :shrug:

If my methodology is flawed... please relate the proper proceedure for measuring these temps without a lab quality meter.
Your temp senario defy the laws of physics so maybe you can better explain why those laws do not apply with your computer. Then we can get into testing methods.... But for a start: http://forums.procooling.com/vbb/sho...&threadid=5765
