THE Best Watercooling on the earth.

[macci]

I was really amaized by the temps made with the AMD system... and the waterblock was optimized to run on an AMD system.... but 31C under load with a plain water @2300MHz/1.9V.... that's really a high up in the ranks for me...

Well obviously those are unrealistic temps and the ASUS probe is reporting way too low values.
Even if the water would be at room temp (which again is not possible since the CPU is putting out over 100W) the 31C CPU temp is impossible. That would mean a C/W value of 0.08. Even the thermal resistance between CPU core and block base is more than that. So even if the block base temp would have been at room temp (=waterblock C/w rating of 0.0.. impossible) its just not possible to get a CPU die temp of 31C.

Same thing with the P4C800 temp readings.. those are not realistic either. [I take this statement back, those are quite ok temps ]

I am in no way saying that the cooling system tested is poor or anything like that. In fact it seems very good
Its just that you cant really compare temp readings given by motherboards as there are (in some cases) more than 20C difference between different mobos.. in some cases even the same mobo models may give more than 10C difference in CPU temp reading.

air cooled stuff can run my p42.6@3.45 1.7 volts idle 24 full load 35 at 20 room temp

Can you say miscalibration of temp sensor?

Here is a very good article on CPU temps and C/W values etc.
