    Yeah, the max working temp for my DDC is 60C so I try not to let the water temp get any higher than 40C. Don't want to replace the pump for a looong time.

    I tried it to see how much power it saved. turns out, not a lot as most of my components all have great power saving features anyway.

    as more energy = more heat I 'presume' Temps wouldn't be that much different.

    Lol me too, but then I do remember the days before I had a modern case, had to be slightly mindful of temps in previous summers. Now I'm reminiscing about the times I had to point a desk fan at my Nforce 5 chipset to cool the northbridge so I could keep running the CPU at 3GHz
