That 5x10 has copper pipes with turbulators inside. Very much underappreciated for quiet PCs.

The Black Ice Extremes are a lot more money for not much more cooling if you are using a quiet fan

"Ah, looks like the BI2Pro is also a 4-pass design versus 2 pass, longer time spent in the radiator means colder exit temps I would think." This is incorrect on several levels. HWLabs made a Black Ice 2 that was 4 pass but I don't think the Pro2 is. And the comment about longer time being related to colder temps is not correct. Would the ideal situation then be NO flow? Not quite.
