I7 temps too high???
 
K running 4.2 at 1.3625 vcore and my cpu is idle at 44 and about 52-58 on load depending on what game im playing. Right now i have cheap 5 dollar fans 78 cfm on a gtx extreme 240 rad with cpx pro pump and little over 500 ml of fluid on this loop. Cpu block is a koolance 330 do i need to upgrad block??? Ambient room temp 26.7c. I will soon put sythe gentle typhoons 1850 rpms on the rad when i get the cash! Was wonder if i need to upgrade the block too?

yea but is under 60s on water good??? i figured with my current set up i should be more like high fortys under load and low thirtys at idle being on water! If thats the case ill change my block to a updated block vs getting air temps on water!

not at all dude... you gotta realize water will help hold a temp, but its not gonna keep it super cool

mine at 1.36V vcore and 1.41V vtt under full linx load does 61 deg max by pass 25

I learned long ago buddy no matter how hard you try... water will give you more heat capacity... but still not a super low temp
