Finally got my Lian Li V2000 water cooled setup running I have one 120 and a dual 80 mounted. What do you think of my temps?

Asus probe reports cpu at 19c
Dallas one wire mounted to the cpu block reports it as being 28.69 c and the GPU 27.94
are these acceptable temps?
 
are they good? yes. are they accurate? sure.... :confused:

I'm not saying your a liar, I'm asking what motherboard you have?
 
you need to post your ambient temps. I'm guessing it's cold where you live and you have the windows open?.
 
LOL I understand why you all would say that I live in central california my system is located in my office the window is closed, LOL and the heater is on.

I'm using an Asus P4C800E equiped with a 3.4 northwood and Asus X800 pro. If there is a difference the ver of the motherboard is 2.0.

I just don't know which temp to believe there is a 10c difference between the Asus prob and the dallas one wire temp prob which is mounted to the underneath side of the water block on the cpu is this a good place to put it?

So what's your ambient air temp (room temp)? Unless your water is heating your CPU, it's not possible that your CPU is cooler than your waterblock. I'd say that neither are very accurate, but the probe is more believable.
 
So the temp of your 3.4 GHz cpu is at or below ambient temp? That's gotta be way off.
 
After playing WOW and ruinning in the background windows media player and Teamspeak, system had reached 36c on the cpu and 35.96c on the gpu as reported by the Dallas one wire prob anc according to Asus prob cpu is at 22c ( which must be way off).
 
depending on the bios revision my mothboard can read like 10 below or 10 above what the actual temp is (it's a chaintech).

so perhaps you have the same thing here?
