WaterBlock test results help.

I'm having a problem understanding what procooling's graph means by "Delta T (CPU-Water in)°C)" Could somebody please explain?

Ignore this post

ok, so say the water comeing in is 30C and it has a delta T of 12, the water comeing out would be 42C?

also: I guess lower = better?

It's the difference between the temp of the CPU and the water entering the block.

oops! just woke up sorry

lomend · Nov 6, 2004

isn't higher better? since more heat is transferred from cpu to the water? that's what i figure...

DarkJester · Nov 6, 2004

The amount of energy transferred between the CPU and the water is always the same. The more effective the block is the less temperature difference it needs to transfer that energy to the water.

so lower= better?

SewerBeing · Nov 6, 2004

yes, lower is better.

sunrunner20 · Nov 6, 2004

Ok, Thanks.

if higher was better

that would mean that if your CPU was at 1,0000,0000,000,0,0,0,0,0000k098ewyhg98ytuighfjkaghd degrees

and your water was at 21 degrees

you'd have the best block ever

not the case
