Take away!! I figure it's best to get any heat out of the case I can, and let the fans handle the rest that's left in the case. It really makes no sense to me to try to stuff a rad in a hot case. But that's just me....This solution worked for me with the short mid-tower case I was limited to, in order to stuff it under the desk.
@ reltemp, I'm proceeding to collect the detailed data we talked about. So far, so good. (It quit peeing nanofluid out from the lower thermocouple wire..) I'm allowing at least a few hours between setting a data point and taking measurements. I figure that should be Plenty of time for the thing to settle into it's final thermal equilibrium.
