Also worth mentioning that AIO's have terrible pumps in them. They don't move a lot of volume, and there isn't a lot of volume of coolant to move. This can allow heat soak in the block and loop. The radiator probably is not the limiting factor when it comes to AIO's and modern CPU's. You see much better results with a similar sized radiator and D5 pump/res and dedicated CPU block. More coolant volume, more volume of coolant being moved.
Between GN and J2C there is enough information out there to support this. AIO's are better than air, but no where near as efficient as a custom loop. With how current gen CPU's are designed to run right up to max temp a custom loop will sustain boost clocks for much much longer, and possibly higher.
