Water getting too Hot ? 49.5c after an hours gaming

I will mention Pump as Well.
I agree that first thing would be to clean rads and fans from dust
Then Open up the blocks if Rad cleaning not helps
Then Flush the rads maybe
I had the situation when culprit in similar situation was dying pump. It ended up with so low RPM that was barely moving the water around and my CPU temps were going Up to 75c. However your situation looks more that Pump works properly, otherwise CPU temp itself would hit the roof not only water temps would be high.
Where is your Water temp measuring diode? I use 4 Inlline diodes that i can see water temp in any place in my loop. After CPU Block , After VGA and after each RAD just before it goes back to CPU block.
 
my water temp is as the water goes back into the res so its Res-360mm-cpu-gpu-140mm-temp sensor-res

not had chance to look at fans this eve so will have to be tomorrow afternoon

Randall, how long ago did you purchase them the Nickel blocks?

The cpu block was about 10-11 months ago. However the gpu block was only changed 6 months ago when i upgraded fro a 970 to 980. However i did not drain the loop th change it just turned the pc on its side and let mavity work its magic
