Hi Everyone i just recently installed a custom watercooling kit into my computer now i brought a waterblock for my 780ti and for some reason when i stress test both my cpu temps reach like 100c
now if i stress test the cpu alone it only goes to about 55c max but with my gpu stress at same time it causes it to heat up very quick.
now i know the way i set it up is that the gpu fuild goes to the cpu block then from there goes to the radiator but i am a bit baffled.

How large of a radiator are you running? If you stress test the GPU alone how hot does your CPU get?
Realize that you have joined the cooling system for the CPU and GPU, so with the GPU putting heat into the system the coolant is going to be hotter than if the CPU is doing it alone, and since the GPU puts out wayyy more heat its going to raise the coolant temperature a lot. It just seems like you don't have enough radiator area to dissipate ~350W of heat.

Loop order does not matter...not outside of 1-2C at very most.
What pump?
What Radiator? What size is it?
What CPU block?
You mentioned EVGA hydrocopper
Can you link to the 'kit'?
Is coolant moving? You shouldn't be seeing 100C if coolant were moving unless you were seriously low on radiator space (like a single 120mm rad for an overclocked CPU and your 780 Ti is running full bore) or your pump was not pushing coolant.

Both your cpu temps? What are they?Is the pump and radiator fans working? What rpm are they running at.
Is the hose kinked where it goes into the top of the radiator? (lloks like it from the photo) Is fluid flowing?
Tried pumping the other way? (from radiator to cpu to gpu to pump to radiator)

oh well the GPU will never go over 50c which is good but the CPU hits like 80c when playing say Crysis 3 but if i were to play games such as dota 2 GPU would sit say on 44c and CPU at 53c.

you could be right i mean ive seen other setups with this config i think the loop is wrong lol and do u think i should just reattach the ACX cooler from EVGA and just use air cooling for gpu and watercooling for this CPU?

is the link for that kit and all the info should be there
here are the temps for idile: http://puu.sh/bHNG7/acd9b7257a.jpg
and here are for stress test for just CPU using Prime95 64bit: http://puu.sh/bHNM3/a379966fa7.jpg
when the GPU is stress test it max goes 45c i know when i use both that the gpu heat goes into the cpu and there from but if the coolant wasnt moving then it would high very high temps.

the radiator RPM is running which i saw on bios at 3500rpm:
2 fans are both running at 1700rpm
3rd question answered
the last question i havent tried this method yet i am thinking of doing it today-

If you don't want to answer questions, I can't really help.this is idle temps http://puu.sh/bHNG7/acd9b7257a.jpg
this is CPU stress Temps: http://puu.sh/bHNM3/a379966fa7.jpg
but the GPU i can tell u it gets around 45c -50c max but if i do a cpu stress same time the cpu temp is at like 80 - 90c

Did you remove the clear plastic from the CPU block before you installed it? Happens quite a bit for first timers....

IMO you sir should be more concerned with your 115c motherboard temperature, you are a classic example of removing the stock air cooler that is cooling the motherboards VRs,
and not supplying a replacement air flow to cool them, you may as well start a stop watch to your motherboard failure because it is coming!

hmm i mean i haven't taken off anything diference all ive done is just add this water loop i mean i havent changed anything to the motherboard besides add waterblock to cpu and gpu thats all

The fact that you no longer have active airflow over your motherboard is probably the reason. When you install a watercooling kit, you still need to have active airflow to cool your remaining components as the CPU fan is primarily responsible for this. When you replace that with a waterblock, obviously you need to compensate by ensuring airflow exists.
No offense, but your smiley face isn't fooling us. Blow a desk fan into the side of your case and see what happens to this temp reading...then turn it off and observe.

The 115c motherboard temp could be a faulty sensor, too. I'd be more inclined to believe that, than the lack of a few CFM of airflow that a cpu cooler would create over a passive heat sink on the VRM. It's not uncommon...
What kind, and how many fans do you have on your radiator? Where are they situated in the case? How many other fans do you have going in the case? In / out? Total CFM in as opposed to total CFM out?
