I had ordered my Dtek WW and Cascade at the same time and of course the WW arrived first. With it in my rig, my cpu temps were 50C folding, and 54C under cpuburn. These temps were after lapping (before they were 2C higher).

My cascade arrived and I sold the WW (for what I paid).
With in in the rig now, my temps are identical to the lapped WW. The coat of artic alumina is only a day old, so temps may drop a bit.

My radiator cooling (shrouded, rheovolted panaflo m1a on a heatercore) needs work....my water temp is 14C above ambient air. I may upgrade to a push/pull, since I want to keep it quiet.

Strangely, my water temp with the PC/fans off but pump on is still 13C above ambient air (8C over case air). could the Eheim 1048 be heating the water that much?
