Yep, at equilibrium the radiator is dissipating X watts, being the wattage of the CPU plus the pump.

Work out the mass of the air-flow through the radiator per second, then the thermal capacity of that air (per second), and then divide the wattage by the thermal capacity to arrive at the ∆T of the air from intake to exhaust.
