As I sit here the relitive humidity is 70%, and my evaporative cooling water temp is less than 1 degree above ambient (which is 21 degrees) this is cooling a T-bred 2100+@2.4gig, 1.9v.
In the warmer asian climates the evaporative cooling is still going to be superior to rad based cooling, even if the humidity is high, it's actually the colder climates that have rad based cooling coming closer to the performance of evaporative cooling, since the colder water has less of a tendency to evaporate.
ie when my ambient temps are higher like 27 degrees, the same evap setup(water temp) is 3-4 degrees below ambient.
