I note the gif is now removed from their "list of performance graphs", have copy here if link doesn't work.
However this comparison still remains on their list. |
Herr Montag mentioned 14.9x14.9mm over at OCAU for a 222mm^2 die.
Perhaps another reason why not to trust any manufacturer's own comparisons of competing products?
Just focusing on a product that's not my own, being the RBX in this instance.
At ~0.105 C/W for the RBX at 1GPM for a 222mm^2 heat die, that certainly does not seem to fit well with results seen for JoeC's 130mm^2 die, or even really match up that well if we extrapolate to BillA's test-bed.
In fact, the results for both the RBX and the Cascade seem particularly "whack", and given the independent tests of the block that are available, do not agree at all with Hydrocool's findings.
Joec's results would certainly indicate that given a pump like the MCP600 that the RBX would be in front once we take the relative pressure-drop of the respective blocks into account and the impact that will have on the flow rate that the pump could push through either block.
Am having trouble correlating the apparant quality of the testbed system to the results that are coming out the other end...
