I think it still has alot of tweaking to do.
After all, water is the best liquid thermal conductor known to man isnt it?? We still have a way to go before we hit the wall with water for cooling.
I do not see how this is possible as Cathars blocks are getting around 9-10C above ambient? If you cannot get ambient than that leaves what? 7-8C more room roughly depending on the load. Where is the point to where it hits the "wall" as you speak? You must know that answer or you wouldn't have made that statement?

Non the less thats not really what I was asking anyway. Basically I want to know if all this "heavy" equipment will do any better than more conventional systems. Faster flow means the water will heat up a little as it is creating frinction. So the faster the flow the more heat it will create. He is talking about an extream amount of flow and I just wonder if it is necassary or even worse if it may hamper it.
