Testing was with the stock (#1) nozzle. I have said this many times:

I don't care for the RBX because it simply isn't wide enough. In real world usage you are going to have problems with hoses pulling it off the core making a good mount difficult. This is worse on Socket A, but on 939 and 478 sockets you have a different problem. The base isn't as wide as the IHS and so the cooler does not even meet AMD and Intel required specs for coolers.

I like the DD TDX more than either of these blocks because I don't care for 3 barb blocks.
