post us some links to those products
i used to use a dangerden water block

the problem is it's hard to get these things near ambient temp because yur basically pumping the water through a heater and then trying to cool it down with ambient air

water cooling setups are highly dependent on the temp in your house/case and can't go under ambient temp unless you are using pelts

those temps don't look too bad tho

It would be more telling if we knew what ambient was and case temp along with your cpu, and pre-water cooled temps, etc.
