The BIX managed 5.4C above an ambient of ~22.2C.
My German is weak, and machine translators aren't much different, but the testing methods @ watercoolplanet.de seem to be reasonably competent.

that's the testbed for the blocks.... the rad tests (from the data) seem to have taken about 35mins - which seems awfully short - need to see the details...
the makers themselves claim 662.91W for the BIM2 - and that's at 40C above ambient!... thats a c/w of over 0.06...
