Cather, do have any idea what kind of effective convection coefficient you are getting with the Cascade? 50000W/m^2K seems a bit low to me, based on the kind of performance you are getting from it. After some playing with numbers I'd say that if you were getting an h=~50000, the baseplate would have needed to be at least 5mm thick to get near the numbers you are getting...
Dunno, thinking...
