IBUYPOWER closed loop triple rad

[Rezoe]

So my friend gave me his ibp closed loop triple rad cpu cooler.
I'm curious, is this thing better than the h100i?
I'm not 100% sure on how stable the cooler is just yet but here is a 4ghz overclock on a 3770k with 1.14 volts.
please tell me what you think.

In theory it has to be better because it has more surface área but we have other points to consider.
1º- The Material that the radiator it´s made of.
2º- The cpu block
3º- The pump

Yeah I had those exact thoughts going through my head before I even posted.
The pump looks pretty cheap and certainly has a whine to it at 100%.
the radiator fins and width look exactly the same as the h100i. I'm not saying they are the same but they sure as hell look the same. the block is copper and feels like it makes good contact with the cpu also it feels like it is applying the appropriate amount of pressure.

I overclocked the cpu alittle higher putting the core speed at 4.5ghz and the volts to 1.25
my high temp reads on prime95 were 77c-84c-81c-77c

EDIT: the prime test im running is BLEND

Using that calculate the Delta temperatura.
About the cooler, it is very similar to an Asetek Rad. Asetek has OEM customers like AMD,ANTEC,CORSAIR,NZXT,THERMALTAKE and ZALMAN.

Take a look. http://www.asetek.com/

deltas on the 4.5ghz 1.25 volt oc on prime 95 blend were 54c-61c-58c-54c

From what I am reading online in forums is that people are pulling much better temps even with higher overclocks on the h100 with similar ambient temps and same fan configuration which is sp120 QE's

This is obviously not 100% confirmed but if it's true that is insane that ibp could create such a horrible cooler that even with the extra 120mm surface area it is being beaten. apparently my friend took the option to getting this cooler and it cost him near 200$. INSANE
