Have gathered some results with the G7 vs the G5, and am busy constructing such a post.

The G7 represents my version of a near completely "flow agnostic" block (within reasonable limits of course).

Can it get better, yes, very very slightly, but only by specifically tuning for very high-end pumping powers, but for a while now I've realised that water-cooling's back is against the wall with respect to seeing further improvements and with the G7 I think I'm about as close as one can get excluding optimising for specific pumping powers.

I'll explain more when I finish my write-up.

Oh, and I agree - this is pretty close to sheer madness.
