i would like to know if my watercooling system is working fine


maze 2 waterblock
cooling cube
eheim 1048 pump
3L of water with water wetter
all of the above products are ordered from dangerden.com

temps:
tbird 1ghz @ 1.53ghz
amb : 22c
MB : 28
cpu : 49 full load

MB : 27c
cpu : 44c idle

are these temps normal ? if not how can i cool the cpu down even more ? i am wondering if these are the temps i should be getting because i get the similar temperatures with me global win FOP38

thanks
regards
jeff

Those look a bit toasty for watercooling. You probably should tweak a little, since most people would want higher performance from an expensive (compared to a fan and heat sink) watercooling system. You could try reapplying your thermal goop and reseating the water block if you want lower temps. If not, those are acceptable temps, and I don't think you'll have a problem.

Ever since I droppen a fan on my Athlon, it's never gone above ambient.

i did both and i don't understand why the performance has so little difference

How much airflow do you have to your radiator? Maybe your water is just getting too warm. I'm also using a Maze2 and with ambient temp being about the same it takes a real effort to get my temps up to 40C at full load (like turning the pump off). What ratio of water-wetter are you using?

Have you thought bout using a Pelt. With one you would get a much lower temp. My 1.1 T-Bird runs at 9C idle and when I run S.A.N.D.R.A. burn-in it goes up to about 28-30C.
