The Cascade cooling area will optimally cope with up to 350mm^2 bare-die CPU's, and ~250mm^2 IHS-afflicted CPU's. It can cope with larger areas with a slow drop-off in performance as one pushes larger. The area outside of the main 350mm^2 sized jet section would offer a cooling effect not too different to a Maze 3, but until we see die-sizes that large, the Cascade's performance will hold up very well to all current, near and far future CPU's.
