[SOLVED] EK Custom Loop

[00newboldc]

Apologies if this has been covered before but I’ve just completed my first full custom loop and was wondering if my temps are a little higher than they should be for a custom loop. My setup is as follows:
Ryzen 7 1700 (small oc 3.7ghz, stock voltage)
Gigabyte x370 Gaming K7
16GB DDR4 3200mhz Team Group dark pro
EVGA 1080 SC edition
Seasonic Focus 750w
Phanteks Evolv ATX tempered glass case

My cooling setup is:
EK DDC Pump
EK GPU waterblock
EK cpu & motherboard block
12mm hardline tubing, with ek fittings
1no. 240mm black ice nemesis radiator in the top of the case
1no. 240mm black ice nemesis radiator in the front of the case
3no. 120mm EK Vardar fans as intake in the front of the case
2no. 120mm EK Vardar fans exhaust top of the case
1no. 140mm Corsair mag lev fan as exhaust in rear of case

Currently my static temps for cpu are hovering around 35-40 and are going up to 60 - 65 under load. I know this isn’t an issue but would have thought a custom loop would have offerd better temps. Also after the computer has been under load the temps struggle to return back to static temps. I was wondering if this was normal and if anyone can provide and advice? Spent around £500-£600 on the custom loop and I want to make sure I’m getting the full potential out of it! Many thanks in advance.

Amazing build, looks great! The usual suspects being a new loop is air pocket somewhere, mounted blocks correctly, pump speed, ect. That said, could be the combined heat from CPU monoblock. Several people on these forums I've seen before with higher than expected CPU temps were due to the VRMs "shared heat" on same block. Common factor was the EK monoblock itself.
