I don't think you can make that generalization. And, from what I understand of what BoxGods has posted, he's not saying that either. Every system is going to behave somewhat differently.
For example, I have the i7 920 running in it's own loop with a PA120.3, the MCP355 pump and XSPC res top. I also have 3 x 285s running in their own loop - again, with the PA120.3, MCP355, and XSPC res top. I can't assume from the data presented so far that I will get better temps if I switch to one D5 and a Typhoon III. But then again, I might get comparable performance - won't know for sure til I try it. I may actually try this at some point just for kicks, but probably not in the near future.
