My temperatures are idling about 39c roughly, and after 150 passes of IBT I am getting 70c as my highest CPU temperature. I would like my load temperatures to be around 55-60c. What can I do? I am happy with my results but I know they can be better.
 
is it only the CPU in the loop?

at this point, if your seating is good, and your coverage is good on the CPU block, more rad space is what you need. Or your block limited (which i doubt).

The Stealth is a thinner radiator isnt it ?
 
what fan are you using in that rad?.. that radiator have extremely high FPI also very thin, so require very special fans to get the maximum performance.. also at that number of OC 70C after 150passes of intel burn test does not sound so bad at all...

you are very limited by your case, but i saw some people who mount another radiator in the HDD bays.. that i think its the best option to go if you want to lower the temps to your setup..
 
What are the cases I keep seeing with the PSU and harddrives mounted in the back?
