Help High temps

[blair]

I think it is defiantly the pump or flow problem i lowered the pump speed to 3 from 4 and temps rose 4C raised pump to speed 5 and now cpu under load hovers around 75-76C thats about a 6-7C drop from the setting i had it on so maybe i should get a even higher speed pump and should drop some more?

Better flow rate.

yes the flow rate is higher but the head is the pressure and 5.8m is way better than 3.7m, head is worth more than flow rate a 400Lph pump with 10m of head is way batter than a 10,000lph pump with 0.5m of head.
Anyone know where i can get a 24V pump controller for the PMP-450S pump?
plus that the one i got anyway XD

Have bough a Kollance 450S pump and the new raystorm cpu block which supposedly has a 1/3 of the restriction of the rasa block will report back with how it has helped my temps when i fit it.

Cheers for all the help think we are nearly at the bottom of this!

installed the pump and block temps down to 69-70C now on prime is that ok flow rate is much better now.

So ~10c lower, temps nice.
How it idels and whats the temps in normal use of yours?

71C cpu in BF3 and 56C on both gpu's (74C and gpu's 60C with fans on 50%) still not amazing as soon as both gpus fire up as well the temps go up but now its either rad space or fans.

idles 36C with fans on max.

arnt the above temps still a little high for this setup?

Bah, of course! I completely forgot about pressure vs flow rate - didn't even enter my mind D:

sounds like what you had before any additions from first OP. 5° cooler GPU though.
have you tried going back to the beginning before all of this to verify operation?

Sorry i dont get what you mean i think it maybe the apache fans on the 360mm rad, i had them before on a rad and swapped them out for gentle typhoons and had lower temps, cause switching the fans off on the 240rad which has GT fans yield the bigest rise in temps compared to switching the 3 apache fans off on the 360rad.

put the GT's on the 360mm rad and temps dropped about 4-5C now on load the cpu hovers around 69-70C, But if i take the side panel off it will drop another 4C
