60C and water cooling? Something is VERY wrong if you're getting those temps... Like I said, my home-made block is crap by a machinist's standards, but I've NEVER seen temps past 45C in the summer and the room was darn warm! So you should check the TIM (Thermal Interface Material) and what TIM are you using? What GPH pump will/are you using? Etc, I need details playa! J/K Any how post me some detailed info and maybe I and others can help?! Thanks
Lol look at the p4 thermal design sheets from Intel... You can find it at intel.com you can calculate the amount of heat in watts comming from the CPU, although I won't get that far in OCing since my p4's multiplier is locked (damnit) you can get to the limit that you can only transfer so much to the water from the copper. But I won't get above... I hope 42C if i calculated it right... But I'll report my results and everything later... First I have to buy the radiator, fan control, some 120mm fans, a bigger case, and some heatsinks, and mem clips.
