How did you managed to fit the pump with two 240mm rads?
I cheated. I mounted the pump and reservoir on the outside back of the case.
I checked the CPU waterblock. It seemed as if if was sitting on one of the capacitors near the CPU socket. I repositioned it and now under full load it does not go as high as before, but still 80°C.
Also fascinating: When starting the computer and running Prime95, temps go from 30 to 80 and when I stop after a short time, it goes fairly fast back to the mid 30s. But when gaming for two hours temps are at 50°C and only go down very slowly. Does that tell me, that the CPU block can't transfer the heat to the coolant very well?
