Loving my new setup lol
And no condensation
Got a cheap dew point/ relative humidity meter and I can go as low as 8 degrees C water temp without issue. (how far down I can go will vary day-to-day) but as long as I don't open all the Windows and keep the thermostat in my house at 21c I can maintain a 'relative humidity' indoors of about 40-45% which = 8c without a single iota of condensation
As long as I keep an eye on the dew point meter I'm fine
And I don't even have a dehumidifier yet
Also even with the EK D5 pump running at its LOWEST setting the water still gets around the system flawlessly.
Under Furmark full load with power target at 130% on my EVGA Classified (that's a 320W draw compared to an Nvidea maximum of 180 watts) and my temp still never exceeds 19-20c.
The SECOND I turn Furmark off the temp drops back to 10c before I can blink
Not sure whats up with my CPU though (temps are still reaching 48c with PRIME95) and when I stop the sress test it takes 1 min 20s for socket temp to drop back to 20c.
'Package Temp" on CPU on the other hand never exceeds 22c and drops down to 5c in 2 flashes when stopping test (but 'Package Temp' on AMD is never reliable).
