Anyone can share your lowest gaming gpu temp using ek blocks?
I only managed 45-46 degree on Overwatch with 360 radiator w/o push-pull configuration running at full fan speed on radiator.
Anyone achieve lower temp and how you achieve it?

if only sell 240 : | 360 for cpu and gpu is just way overkil.... unless you sli them..

imo your temps is pretty normal... you try benchs?? mostly should be around 50 ish with those benchs

How low you want it to be? Lol. Ambient already 35degC.

Any lower you will have condensation.

Im running on full overclocking system. 4.5ghz i7 5820k and gpu 2.06ghz. Internal loop temps stabilize at 55degC on both.

360 and 240 rad. Just push config. Too bad my chassis have bad airflow.

If i remove my front panel and side panel im getting 46degC also.

Yes have space. Just need to find space to work with.

Im quite happy with the temps already. Usually normal aio on heavy oc 5820k already breached 80degC.

Even the best cooler for 1080 on air would be hovering around 7xdegC.

So on custom water cooling despite bad airflow, im still getting 55degC, im happy liao.

With such powerful radiators, temp hitting similar to mine
meaning to say 44-45 is the maximum we can go with normal coolant
Thanks for info!
