    lol..The results are taking too long, this poor guy either set his room on fire, electrocuted himself or simply killed the CPU. Either way, we're all here for you and we still want some results!

    In my thinking the die thats producing the heat is the same size whether it is surrounded by the IHS or water. All the heat orinates from the die the IHS just gives a larger surface area for a heatsink to be mounted, water is doing the same job as the old IHS and since water is a better conductor, you would expect to see better temps.
