46 idle and 53 load on watercooling?!

I have the same problem. I'm using a Mag3 and a chevette heatercore. Swiftech 5002 waterblock. I am thinking that the waterblock isnt contacting the cpu to great. I put my t-line up there and I think its pulling on the waterblock.

Yeah, when mounting the block you have to make sure there's equal pressure applied to all four corners.

well i guess the concensus is that with my setup and component temps and ambient temps... i'm stuck with what i have. i was hoping for cooler temps though.
