my water cooling kit just arrived yesterday..
so far i am quite satisfied with its cooling ability but i would like to know if i am getting the correct temperatures for this kit

my kit is:
eheim 1048 pump
cooling cube (radiator)
120mm fan (mounted on radiator)
eheim hoses
maze 2 water block
3L of water with water wetter

all the above products are purchased from dangerden

another question is that should my fan be blowing into the radiator or should it take out the heat from the radiator ?
thanks :)

In a single fan setup, pulling the air through the Cube works best. Adding a second fan pushing will drop your full load temps about 3C.

BTW, unless there is an electric fan on the front of the radiator, an automobiles fan pulls the air through the radiator.

oh yea I never even considered the front mounted radiators lol, those do pull the air through although the foward motion of your car also crams air through, especially with a top mount radiator you should be pulling the air out of the box
