Simon, are you missing my point?
I am talking about those that sale COMPLETE SYSTEMS as a COOLING UNIT.

If that guy had an ambient at 25.5C the differential between these temps would increase, maybe significantly, maybe not.

The differential is the ability of the RAD, FAN, and WB to remove the heat and to lower the CPU temps to a closer value to the ambient temp. What I stated above was just an example if I were to take my ambient temps and add 15.5c. His article is very misleading. That rad that is used in the article is a P. O. S.
Hell I can open my door and show great temps on my air cooling rig. I then could report my results to this site, but that would be misleading and not my true temps. My differential number stay really close. So if I lower my ambient temps my cpu temps go down, but the differential number stays within 1c.
The bottom line is how the cooling system works as a system and to get the lowest differential number out of the system. This is the only true way to report how a complete system is working as a unit.
As stated in the article. the 33.5 cpu temps look great, but to get those temps from that system the ambient temps were 18c.
