Traditionally Swiftech(Billa) uses a 10x10mm die which I suggest is more comparable to cpu cooling. I do not accept Robotech;s assertion "
the relative relationship or ranking of waterblocks tested on different systems should be relatively consistent ." Some of my thoughts on Die-size are illustrated
here (from one of Incoherent's

Suspect that the "thermal resistance", shown by Swiftech, is the virgin resistance as determined by
Incoherent . This does not include the contribution of TIM and "sensor offset" to the Die/Coolant temperature differential.
