Radiator Tests (Trial 2)

Here is the oil cooler, oil filter, and 15 watt submerged pump hooked up and functioning. This setup lowered my temps by a good 6 - 7 degrees Celsius. My computer is now running at a pretty constant 50 - 56 degrees Celsius depending on the outside temperature (remember, I'm running this in the middle of the Caribbean in the dead of summer with no climate control). When the computer is under load, the CPU and GPU spike up to about 71 degrees Celsius, however the oil temps do not seem to travel above 56 degrees Celsius. I have not been brave enough to attempt sustained peak tests (only several hours of video games). My motherboard firmware is set to power down at 70 degrees Celsius. I have yet to reach anything near that.
