Hello, have a A7V133 mobo with Athlon 1.2 GHZ chip, I recently purchased a radiator, pump and waterblock at DangerDen. I installed this using various tutorials and my own knowledge, now this is what i get in Temps and i was wondering if this is normal or not. These are CPU temps
Before watercooling with my Superorb
With Seti on = 62C
W/O Seti on = 50C
Now with this Watercooling
With Seti on = 49C
W/O Seti On = 37C
Now reading some articles they state that even with a full load (seti) and w/o a full load the tempature should be about the same. Not with my setup it's like 12 degrees difference. I was wondering if this is normal? Now i installed that one patch that disables certain parts of the CPU during idle time, i'm not sure if that would effect the difference or not. It did make a difference in the Superorb setup.
