What temps is every one is get with water cooling ?
my temps with thermalright sk-7 with Tt smart fan 2
idle 33c load 35c . with water cooling would i get lower temps
then i have now ?



Please post Temps .
 
If those are your temps with air, water isn't going to give you anything in the temp department. It may be able to increase your OC. How are you measuring/reading your current idle/load temps?
 
Water tends to give better temps at higher overclocks, not better temps at stock. Water cooling might be able to increase your OC though, like SemiCycle said.
 
AND much silent, i'm going back to water now so no temp as of yet. I've seen others with the same temp that you got except quiter and they can bump higher voltage therefore runs at higher speed. You will see what mean when you pumo your vcore to 1.85v and clock higher ;)
 
you can OC better even with AIR, i say about 11*215

but with water and more V, u can do crazy oc like (my friend)
8.5*250
 
id didn't sad my freind uses ASUS.
he's using NF-7 S rev2 with some mods.

but i think sct can do 215 on an ASUS
 
nah hes lucky to pass 200

but the point here is the CPU overclock NOT FSB.

sct, your temp is on the safe side why dont you pump the voltage to 1.85v and see how high your CPU can go and what temp you will get.
