Nice to see you totally ignored how I proved TDP in that test was 175W 75% of the time.
Um, no you didn't. A screenshot of a graph with no Y axis labels proves exactly nothing. Especially since it doesn't even show the temperature going up by more then 70% over 41C, yet the article claims the temp was 79C.
It doesn't particularly work that way in heatsinks, that cooling power is higher at 90C. The limit of heatsinks is the immediate transfer of energy from the base plate to the cooling fins, where THEN the cooling is increased. Heatpipes max out pretty quickly,
Every part of the heatsink moves energy more efficiently when the thermal gradient is higher. Heatpipes, fins, etc. Thermal conductivity is measured in W/m^2 K because as temprature differences increases so does heat flow. It's a straight linear relationship.
Nothing can "max out" on heat transfer, unless it burns or goes through a chemical reaction and turns into another substance. (like from diamond to graphite)
Seriously, you're just proving over and over again you have zero clue when it comes to thermodynamics.
Dear Non Engineer,
You don't have a clue about any of the technical information in this thread. Again you're just dismissing the logic spelt out line by line with the sentiment "they must be getting it right".
tldr: Greed/desperation > logic.
WTF are you talking about? You haven't done any "engineering" or said anything "logical" all you did was post a random screenshot of a graph with no labels and that doesn't even match up with the other numbers and claimed.... something.
