Help me!!!! My watercooling system is not performing as I want it to. My system is as follows: Pentium 4 3.4 ghz @ 3.83 1.37v with a silverprop cyclone evolution2 waterblock, joined by as5 to the cpu, cooled in series with my x600. My pump is 1000lph and iam running a 120.1 and BIX 120.3. all tubing is 1/2"ID apart from the vga waterblock and 120.1 rad which is 1/2"OD. iam getting suprisingly average temps (41degrees celcius idle and 45 load.). What can i do to drop the temps? this is all housed in your favourite, eye burning case, the thermalatke tsunami, wih the 120 on the rear fan and the 120.3 on the inside bottom. Please advise me as i would like to get into the low 30s. Is a TEC my only option? iam reasonably experienced with cooling but this is really confusing me!!!
 
That CPU is a Prescott...those temps are pretty reasonable for that proc...since it runs very hot to begin with.
 
Do you have any other fans blowing across the CPU area?

What location(s) and direction(s) are the fans blowing?
