I also have the Maze 4 CPU block and here's my results:
The Maze 4 CPU block needs very high flow rates to get good results. I had a very low restricted setup consisting of 1/2in ID tubing, LRS120 radiator from JP, Maze 4 CPU block, Via Aqua 375 GPH pump, and I used a T instead of a res. Since this was a very low restrictive setup, the Via pump was working very well and I was getting load temps of 43C at 2.03V at 30C case temps!
Then I decided to get the MCP600 pump because my Via was just too loud, the MCP600 puts out much less heat, I planned on adding a GPU block and replacing my Maze4 CPU block with a better block (all the better blocks are alot more restrictive than the Maze4).
After replacing my Via with the MCP600, my CPU load temps went up to 46C (maybe higher). I knew the MCP600 wasn't pumping water as fast as the Via because of how fast the bubbles were moving while I was bleeding.

yes, it will be less restrictive.
