    Both rads tested with 3x Scythe Ultra Kaze @ 2500rpm. Testing method as with all the other rad tests by me, heat load @ 290W.

    Temperature-difference water-ambient:

    Black Ice GTX: 5.4 K
    XSPC RX: 5.4 K


    In my prior testing it was evident that the temperatures achieved approached very similar levels with increased fan speeds, but I didn't expect this. I still kinda hoped the Black Ice would get ahead at some point... What do you make of this?
    Mario: "Erica, you know I love you, but I gotta come clean. I'm...I'm not really a man. I'm a woman!
    Erica: "Oh my god, you're a woman?!"
    Mario: "Well actually, I'm not really a woman, I'm a horse!"
    Erica: "Oh my god, you're a horse?!"
    Mario: "Actually, I'm not really a horse, I'm a broom!"

    ....
    Erica: "To be honest Diane, I'm surprised."

    Especially considering:

    and

    (44% improvement in temps vs. PA120.3 with only a 33% increase in airflow....and the PA120.3 beats the RX noticeably at higher RPM too)
