you're asking a 50watt tec to move 200watts of heat, with a low heat processor that cooler may work well, but as you scale in heat output it cannot keep up, especially kents... I'm trying to help you not possibly burn your processor, and moreso possibly stop your cpu from throttling. 6000 seti pts a week is good but consider my kent put out 3k - 4k pts/day @ 60C in coretemp

Well according to the front panel(Which is hardware and Not Software, I know the difference) of the Vigor Monsoon II the cold plate is reading 35C right now, Of course that is cause of the uneven load due to a faulty Bios not overclocking the cpu evenly like It should and does on My P5W which is at 45C currently, The P5W is at 36C according to Speedfan 4.31, I won't use Core Temp as It doesn't come close to what the hardware is telling Me. I do pretty good in Seti, I'm 9th out of 169 team members and in 29 days or so I'll get to 8th place, I out produce the top guy right now too, Right now My Rac is 9126.88 and I only have 4 PCs too.



Also as I said earlier I don't get any reboots when the ram is set to 1:1, Just at 2:3 and that is cause the NB heatsink sucks, Otherwise It's completly stable, So the Reboots are not caused by a cpu heat problem which is FUD.

Tweaktown has a review of the Vigor Monsoon II and It's here.
The cpu is a hot Athlon FX-53 of course.

Of course PC Perspectives has an earlier review too(No I don't work there, I just hang out there, As It's a hobby for Me).

The Monsoon II control module also contains an audible alarm that will sound if the temperature drops below 15°C or rises above 70°C.
