    Wink How Many Liquid Cooling Sytems Do I Need?

    Hello all! I have a ASUS P6T Deluxe with a CPU Block, Northbridge/Southbridge Block, & 2 Mosfet Blocks currently running on one Liquid Cooling system in series that has a 500L/hr pump on it with 3 120MM fans on a radiator. The Temp on the flow meter says the sytem is running at 26C which I know is way to warm, so I am wondering if an Koolance Exos-2.5 External Water Cooling Kit running the loop of the Northbridge/Southbridge & mosfets would fix my problem? I would keep my current system on the CPU block only. Thank You all for your time!

    if room temp is 77-82F thats about 25-27C so your current loop keeping it at 26C is about as good as it is going to get. thats actually NOT warm at all.. thats fine.

    What CPU do you have, and what is the clock on it? What is the peak temp of the CPU?

    cpu is i7 920 at stock 2.67ghz by the way that 26c coolant temp is at the beginning of the loop right out of the pump from the radiator.
