Now that I see Pug's kit for submission is directly from alphacool I have very little problem with it. Is it what I think of when I think "german"? No. But looks like a very good kit and it could be that this company will just be the first of the German mfgrs to take advantage of lower resistance rads.
I am personally interested in testing kits for a while because it gives my existing testbed something to do while I tweak and learn how to properly use the new equipment. Purely selfish motivations
