So I'm getting a new gaming PC to replace my aging i7 920 which its on its last legs. Decided to give watercooling a try
My PC names are from Star Wars Star Destroyers, very nerdy i know
so my current system is called Executor, this one will be called Eclipse. It will be mostly used for flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator X as I am also building a home cockpit. Might give Skyrim a try too. I also have a triple Dell 24" setup which is really immersive!

Idle is around 33 C.
In gaming the temps are around 35-45 C.
On 100% CPU load with Cinebench max temps are 54C. Fans are at 54%. I have no idea whether thats good or bad lol.
