As a quick small update on Professor Chill (Don't believe I ever did coin a name for last years build) I have a bleeding issue with the rear loop, even with the longest Res I could get the air bubbles still shoot down far enough to get sucked back into the loop... I tried slowing down the loop but then I can't get the air out... meh new design underway. Overall the system stay mighty chill even under a full gaming load with the Oculus hitting only 18C on the CPU and GPU loop with ambient temp at 23C
