Delta from idle to load?

If you see in my sig, im using my complete W/Cing setup to cool just the processor. I idle @ 21/23c but my SP2004 load goes to 43/44c? is a 20c delta normal for my setup? I just dont think that is right....

**ALSO** Before my W/Cing setup if I tried 402x9 for a 3.62GHz OC @ 1.45 Vcore, I couldn't pass SP2004 to save my life. Now with this W/Cing setup I tried it and so far im 43 minutes into SP2004 and so far so good. Is it possible that being in the 40's for load temps made the chip stable at this speed? I was using a scythe infinity cooler and my load temps were 56/57c while using SP2004.
 
20c delta seems like alot... my loop is similar to yours with just the CPU and i get a delta of ~5-6 degrees between my idle and load.
 
are you using the apogee GT block too? If so is there a right way to mount it, and a wrong way to mount it?
 
OK, may have found my issue. A friend of mine told me to route my hoses differently, so maybe this might be the delta issue im having.

Currently im routing it like this RES-PUMP-CPU-RAD-RES

I am being told to route it like this RES-PUMP-RAD-CPU-RES

I think think that new way makes total sense! Could this help me fix my issue?
 
in a closed loop, order doesn't really matter that much. the only time it'd be a concern is if you're pushing into the res.
 
Your loop looks fine to me... my loop is: RAD > PUMP > CPU > RAD (I use a T-line)

Click to expand...

but if I do this setup swap, it wouldnt hurt my temps right?
