I'm thinking about naming this the "The Locker" in inspiration of your comment.. you know safe--locker.. seems logical..

What kind of temperatures do these deltas translate into?
|
So water temp + Thermal resistance - IHS value should get my tecs dt value.
So values change based on water temps which are based on ambient temps and the radiators & fans cooling the tec.

So, to oversimplify things, what do software temperature readings say?
|
Take ambient at 20ºc. lets say your radiators and fans can do a dt of 5ºc of ambient ( 2 tripples in my case)..
I need to cool about 550 watts @ 5ºc with rads and fans.. so two triples can do that.. that puts water temps about 25ºc.. thermal resistance of 550w is 550*.01 or 5.5c.. so the hot side of my tecs would be about 30.5ºc..
now my dt of the waterblock is 40ºc at stock so that puts my ihs at -10ºc..
Add 25ºc for the cpu to heat spreader dt.. and we have a cpu temp at about 15ºc..
Again.. its all about radiators, fans and ambients to figure where the cpu cores will sit with this block..
so as I said I'm getting about 40ºc dt at stock and about 28c at 4.2ghz with an I7 920

Hope this helps..

Going to assume it is a solid piece of copper until stated otherwise - hopefully some more pics will follow with the tecs removed
