Hey guys, i have clc 280 for quite some time. I let the pump speed variable according to CPU temp on BIOS. Is that ok or i'll have to set my BIOS CPU FAN SPEED to full speed? Does this variable pump speed could damage it?

FAQ 59704 We recommend connecting the CLC fan header to the CPU1 or CPU2 header on your motherboard. Make sure the fan header setting in BIOS is set to MAX or 100%. Do not use a PWM fan curve for the header you connect the CLC to. If your motherboard has a fan header designated for a "Pump" you should connect the CLC fan header to this specific location.

So they should at least change the software graph for fan speed x cpu temp. Fan speed is locked on 100% on 60ºC CPU temp, here in Brazil on summer is really easy to achieve those temps. That's why i was using BIOS Speed, unfortunately it regulates the pump as well.

Radiators are the only loop parts responsible for disposing of the heat while remaining nodes merely transfer it (from: an-ultimate-beginners-guide-to-pc-water-cooling) You need a larger Radiator ( or more) if the computer is in a high temp area. One item : one would think that high humidity air would remove more heat from a Radiator but it seems that The ratio of heat transfer rates in humid air and dry air is a unique function of the molar fraction of water vapour, independent of the air temperature and flow velocity

Even in high temp days, CPU temps are good with 280mm, what I don't like is the software limiting the curve CPU TEMP x FAN SPEED at 100% speed(they are very noisy) at 60ºC CPU TEMP, 70-80% speed would be good at this temperature.

I understand what your telling us. I have an EVGA AIO also & can confirm that 60C is the Max temp for moving the set-point, We will have to wait for EVGA to release an updated software. I am on Version 2.08 of Flow Control, firmware 2.1 There is a Version 2.09 that was release in 01-14-2019 I have not tested that one You can tell EVGA what you would like https://www.evga.com/support/suggestions.asp

I'm using 2.09, not fixed yet. I'm using coolant temperature x fan speed graph but can't set a good curve on it.

I have an extra temp probe on my overclocked system that is placed on the outflow side of the Radiator as an extra backup to the water temp sensor. It doesn't control but is just a monitor When system is in steady state running folding - I have played with manual fan control and found auto worked as well will low noise. I would want a better fan speed Hysteresis control before ever using CPU temp speed control again.

The coolant temp that shows on software is before or after cooling the CPU block? Couldn't find it. I imagine that is after cooling the CPU block.

I have not seen any technical info that would include that information I would think it is part of the CPU block Check this for some info: EVGA CLC 280mm Review

Maybe after since the coolant temp is always higher than cpu package temp.

Well you do have 2 different heat sinks to get past before getting to the water cpu to case and case to water block. ------------- If not near sea level I sure would not like water temp to be higher than my CPU internal temp :-)

It's higher only when cpu is Idle, about 2ºC higher.
