Also when I benchmark Crysis my water temp (only CPU and MCH under water, GFX stock air) increases by 2-3C if I compare it with LinX (max problem size, max memory use) even though the CPU temp is lower with Crysis then with LinX.

Go figure
You are right. Crysis is probably producing more data throughput.

Are you using your E8600 CPU? That could make sense.

If you use your Q9650 the data throughput is going to be twice that high for the same CPU speed.
