Hi!
I just put together a watercooling kit, and I just wondered if my temps were right.
My components:


Temp is 39c load at stock speed. This is after the water has warmed up.

What is the idle temp? I would have to say that's a pretty good temperature, considering mine used to idle at that before I got my new case.

it shouldn't be idling over ambient, my blue orb cools my cpu at 2-3C over ambient while idling. and my 30 buck cooler shouldn't be acting like your wcing setup. though my cooler gives a 7-10c difference between idling and loading..

Water cooling excels at loaded temp compared to air. If you want low idle go for tec...many god air coolers can get close to water at idle.

seems pretty decent to me, but comparing idle temps is not really apples to apples.
comparing with full load will tell you much more, and it is really at full load your temp matters anyway

You have a problem.
Speedfan is clueless:

coretemp uses a tjunction of 100C, which only applies to the newer cpu's like the g0. the older cpus use a tjunction of 85C and thats what speedfan is giving you. add 15C to your speedfan temp and you'll be near the coretemp one.
