My friend I have no idea what it is you are asking.

Are you asking if you should shut down your PC? I never do, my PC sleeps after a certain amount of time and that is how it has been forever.

Your temps are pretty high for a water cooled system by the way, but then I have no idea what your system is or what the over clocks are.

Information is good to provide constructive answers. 🙂

I think he means that he's overclocked his system which now runs at around 50.c and he wants to know if it's okay to be running it 24/7

Ah thanks loli

Yes if your system is overclocked and your maximum load temps are within a safe range for the CPU (as yet un-specified) then yes it is no problem to run 24/7.

Running it 24/7 wouldn’t be a problem tho how long do you plan to run it like that? Like any watercooling setup you should have time to clean it like twice or thrice a week depending on how much dust and dirt can gather specially on the rads and fans. Then change water also.

BTW area those load temps or idle?

I hope you're not suggesting that the water needs to be changed several times per week? As long as you add a silver coil or biocide and use distilled water it should not need to be changed for at least 6 months.

So i guess its not a problem.
