As for the Nexxos, yeah, given enough water pressure, you can make it look good...

Given enough water pressure? Same goes for the G4.... They both have similar pressure drops. Either that or pH cut short the flow test on the G4. Usually he stops when he maxes out the system. If that is the case then there is only .75GPM seperating the 2 blocks.

I still don't see your argument for the fins in the G4 nore your argument for fins being better. Using the G4 is a bad example anyway as your so called fins are only a secondary cooling source. Most of the cooling is on the base itself on the bottom of the cups. On a true fin block the majority of the cooling effect will be from the fins itself, this is not so on the G4.
