When this is all said and done I'm SURE you'll see that the MCW462 is tops.
(I'm going to cut a window in the copper base plate and solder in a Cusil plate.)
And I think we'll see that flow rates need to be "tuned" for the waterblock-radiator combination, something no one else is addressing.

hehehehe You have had a bitch with me for some time haven't you?? I happened to get some links to other forums that you were basically slamming the work I was doing and TOTALLY missed the point on much of it.
You are SURE the MCW462 will be tops?? hows that?? if I cant say its going blow compared to others, how can you claim it will be tops?
Flow rate issue?? There is a point where you move the coolant TOO fast, but at that speed you would need a very powerful pump, and a good deal of pressure to move the coolant like that. The real key is keep the coolant moving on the plate face, and the entire face, not just the center. The "Tuning" that needs to be done is the Block and Radiator with the heat source.
Chips blocks are SO easily made bigger to cover a bigger pelt, as most can be.
CuSil is obscenely expensive and you were the person discounting the performance difference between Cu and Ag. Ag and CuSil has a SLIMMER advantage! So wouldn't it make sense to use an entire silver bottom and get overall performance within 1 or 2 Deg of CuSil at a fraction of the cost? You were the one bitching about the cost of Ag....
Swifts blocks are pretty, but there is a big difference between pretty, and functional. ( CpuFX is a good example of that, pretty blue blocks, but real poor performance.
I realize you are tight with swift, but I wont believe that the gods gift to cooling MCW462 will perform as good as you think.
