airspirit,

the reason there is dispute is largely the way you explained it.

I agree that a more efficient block will result in warmer water as the heat dissipated through the watercooling will be slightly greater, so the temperature difference between the water and the air will have to be slightly greater.

However, the way you tried to justify yourself was flawed, and it was more that that I was trying correct than the statement that a more efficient block will result in a greater percentage of the heat load being dissipated by the watercooling.
