IBM's Zurich labs have developed a new heatsink and water-cooling that promises to cool chips up to six times better than conventional air cooling. The heatsink contains tiny channels similar to the capillaries you would see in tree leaves and in human circulator systems. The channels allow either water or heatsink compound to spread more uniformly and thereby dissipate more heat. Read more

I recently build a new rig, it all went well and everything. Until i checked the temperatures with Core Temp and NV Monitor. It Idles at 55c from what coreTemp shows and at load around 77c. Keeping in mind that the CPU is not the only thing that is water cooled. the loop includes CPU + 2x 8800 Ultras. The ultras are showing 50C idle both.

We need to know more about what hardware you used to build your rig. Including how you have your loop setup (res->pump->rad->cpu->gpu1->gpu2->res). This way we can try to help you as much as we can.

For that you'll need a 120.3mm rad and its best to position it before the resevoir.

Hmm it almost sounds like bad mounting. But I could be wrong. Try removing and reseating the waterblocks (after you clean off the TIM already installed). Also try turning up the fans to thier max to see ifthe temps drop more.

On the other hand you get a hot resevoir, the idea behind cool water in res is that when it mixes it will further lose heat.
