Very informative, I was searching information regarding PII 965 temps on water..was thinking of upgrading my rad to a triple ones..
I’m running PII 965 @ 3.8Ghz with a dual 120mm crap Alu rad, low speed fans in push pull config: 34 Idle, 45 load.. I’ve pushed it to 4.1Ghz but its unstable on P95..strange because previous owner ran it under single stage cascade..around 5+ Ghz…probably these chip loved low temps,and mine already used to subzero lol..I guess anything beyond 50 will cause instability..or a rapid temp increase..

Yea, was pretty surprised about the difference as well But fans where run at low speed, and guess that should have a bigger impact on a single rad… Need to play around some more with the fan setup!

Very nice test!

Not a bad drop as it seemed to be about a 5C drop in everything with the 2 hooked up.

I wonder if you had 3 hooked up if it would get you any closer to ambient and if it would keep with the about 5C drop.
