yeah I am in the same gray area you are.... From what I can tell from this thread is that no one thinks that apogee can really out perform the storm and thus nitpicking the testing methods. Personally I can only see one design flaw in the storm and that is the effective cooling area. Being a Peltier man myself I need a larger cooling area for my peltiers making the apogee more for me. Although I do believe that if I were to hook Apogee to a cpu and the storm to a cpu the storm would come out ahead. My simple answer is the storm will do better if you cooling setup can handle it (high GPH/Head rateing pump). The more complex answer is that the apogee might do better for a larger cooling area and when you dont have a 300 GPH/10' head pump. Simple? any glareing errors?
