with any water cooling setup it is still important to have case fans to move at least some of the air out of the case.
did you change the stock northbridge cooler at all?
also, sometimes the system temperatures aren't read properly by different programs depending on the age of the program and the age of your bios.

my general rule of thumb is anything under 50 and stable for the CPU and northbridge is fine.
