Default Re: Swiftech Apoggee review by Robotech systemcooling

I just took a look at Swiftech's numbers again. The PD vs. Flow looks good (lines up with Robotech's numbers), though C/W vs. flow doesn't even come close. Screw the numbers being the same. The blocks should still end up the same RELATIVE TO EACH other.

At 1gpm:

Robotech claims: Apogee .182 Storm .142
Swiftech claims: Apogee .04 Storm .05

At 2gpm:

Robotech claims: Apogee .175 Storm .132
Swiftech claims: Apogee .035 Storm .041 (ish)

I AM NOT SAYING THAT THE C/Ws SHOULD BE THE SAME. They shouldn't. The testing methodologies are different. But they aren't so different that the blocks shouldn't end in the same place relative to each other. (For those who can't understand what I'm saying: If the Storm outperforms the Apogee in one test, it should also outperform the Apogee in another, assuming that the tests aren't radically different.)

I'll cross reference some of Swiftech's old numbers (for old blocks) with Robotech's data later on.

...I'll still wait for pH's numbers.
