Been getting used to my watercooling loop and wondering if my fan direction is optimal

after two hours of gaming here is my temps for a CPU only loop (240mm rad)
cpu 1: 59c
cpu 2: 62c
cpu 3: 64c
cpu 4: 61c
package: 64c

my ambient temp is 26c , I have two GPU's in the case (that frankly need better cooling now it's warm weather)
GPU 1(top) hit 82c ,
GPU 2(bottom) hit 74c

My fans(GT1850's) pull air from the top of my case as an intake and I have a rear 120mm sucking air out
intake is a 200mm

My theory is that my gpu's are heating up the loop more and the 120mm is hard pressed to dump the heat out the case would anyone suggest turning the top fans over to exhaust and have the rear 120mm as an intake ? I'm concerned if I did that then the heat from the GPU's would make the result all the same
 
Temps dont seem to unreasonable for such a monster OC imo(according to your sig).Especially if those are the peak temps after prolonged use,probily closer to 50c the majority of the time

Do you have any front intake fans installed?

Best way to check is to let your system IDLE for a while,then run a cpu intensive program/bench and see what the CPU temp maxes out at.

1x 200mm @ front, from idle running a loop of realbench I hit 62c

CPU is indeed @ 4.8ghz and I kept an eye on the temps never saw it hit 60c+ by eye only when checking after most the time I saw it at 50-55

Yea those are good temps.


Maybe its just an inadvertent sign you should watercool the toasty GPU'S :D
