    wtf did i do wrong??? my liquid cooling sucks...a big one

    holy crap. thats impressive. i got 2 120mm fans on the rad, im thinking the problem is the block and the fact that the pressure is far from great enough to get good thermal transfer, the tubes dont even feel the slightest bit warmer than the room temp of ~73 degrees.... the swiftech website...

    wtf did i do wrong??? my liquid cooling sucks...a big one

    I actually used another bracket for the block, i can't imagine it's not level, but obviously poor performance possibly says otherwise... i couldnt find any decent picture or instructions on swiftech site... the block will not budge, at all. is this a safe indication that it is flat? im...

    ok, to simply put it, i dont have much energy left to put into my friggin computer... I went from a kingwin as3000 little 2x 5.25 bay liquid cooling system to this monster asetek + swiftech + thermaltake cooling system and now my idle temp is at 40..... instead of ~32-34.... what the hell...

    asetek waterchill pump fittings...

    the asetek extreme 12v pump i bought came with 1/2 od fittings, which i initially thought were id specs, so now I'm stuck trying to fit bigger tubing to the pump. i tried getting the right tubing, 1/2 od but the connection sucked real bad, not only did it leak but it slid right out, no "lock"...

    cooling upgrade: your thoughts?

    ok, I've got a kingwin 3000 all in one unit now where the pump/radiator and temp monitor are all in that 2x5.25 enclosure and I'm only using the cpu waterblock. my evga pci16 card isnt being liquid cooled, yet. I've got a 6420 c2d and she's at 2.4GHz right now with a '1200Hz' fsb... highest...

    got my new build running at 2.4GHz (oc'd from 2.13), running TAT @ 95 & 100% loads I'm getting temps of 57 & 55. I wanted to know what's the safe-range for these c2d proc's and if i need to replace my kingwin 3000 with a monster liquid system to acheive numbers upwards of 3+GHz... so be it...
