So i recently built a watercooling setup. I did plenty of research and revised by parts list until it fit my budget, and promised me pretty good performance.
I got:
System Specs:
Intel Q6600 @ 3.4 GHZ
Asus Rampage Formula X48
ATi Raedon 4870x2
4GB Mushkin Extreme 1066 RAM
All powered by a PC Power and Cooling 860w PSU
Cooling setup:
Swiftech MCP655 Inline 12V DC Pump
Swiftech MCR320 QP
Swiftech Apogee GTZ CPU Waterblock
Danger Den 4870x2 Full Coverage Block
Swiftech MCR220 QP
PVC Tubing
Now im wondering.. With this setup, why am i getting such horrible temps?
I have the loop going:
Pump>GPU>220 Rad>CPU>Rad>T-line>Pump.
Ambient temps are 12C..
I dont know whats wrong!
I have the MCR320 mounted in the front of my antec 1200, and my mcr 220 mounted where the exhaust fans were. I also have a fan on the side of the case blowing cold air into it to feed the 220.
Help?
