How far above ambient room temp should a closed loop watercooling system with no res be?
After running my computer for hours, my processor is 96F at idle, room temp is at 70F. Also, load temp is only 105F....did I not get a good seal with the Ceramique?
 
first of all. please use celcius. everyone here does.

proc: 35c
room temp: 21c
load temp: 40c


temps are really good. i usually run around 12c over ambient with my WC setup. and your right around that. to get a lower temp your gunna need more airflow through the heatercore/a larger heatercore.

also the more pressure on the die you can get the better your temp will be
 
Thanks for the reply. So my setup is just about right. I think a larger heatcore would do me well. This one is really thick, but only has enough surface area for 1x 120mm. Im running a 105cfm Ystech right now.


Again, thanks
