also the water can only be as cold as your room is

good point, bob said his CPU idles at 28*C (ish) and thats with the corsair H60 (or other one lol) and i think his PC is in a glass cabinet....... must be a cold room i guess...... besides i wouldnt thin yer coolant would degragate to the point where yer temps would be running about 20% higher than it would do with fresh coolant.......... probs only about 3*C less to be gained with new coolant lol............. amma buy a freezer !!!

Yeah those are high temps, my idle temps haven't dropped much but are now 28 and under full load it hasn't gone over 32 yet! But the point to water cooling is your load temps not idle temps.
Only have one fan in front of the radiator at the moment and it's a 180mm pushing 40 cfm, the 2 fans i have coming are230mm rated at 156 cfm each and they will be a push pull configuration.
So hoping that will bring idle down to low 20's and full load to mid/high 20's.

Yeah man, 360mm radiator.
Temps idle: cpu - 45*C
gpu - 33*C

load: cpu - 60*C
gpu - 50*C

On average ill get these temps, have got a 120mm radiator...just finding the room for it..needs some modding on the case.

them temps are REALLY high for water cooling innit ?

i think my cpu idles at about 52*C
and GPU at 33*C

Idle cpu 33*C
and gpu 28-35*C... :Gimp:
