^ what he said. You can always go bigger and better, but in the end, you will never get that last 1C without some kind of "special" cooling. There is a point where overkill no longer overkills but actually makes the system impractical. That is about where a double size heatercore is. Anything bigger and you will not see it do better. Same thing for pumps, only after a point they dump more heat into the system than is removed by faster flow.

It's all about finding the most practical and best performing mix.
