Default Several Blocks from around the world

Since 78% of our planet's surface is covered by water, it only makes sense there's so many wasserkuehler designs out there.

Euro Wasserkuehling seem's to offer some really interesting design concepts, especially in Germany, where I find the CNC work to be top-notch. I'm currently reviewing the CF1 microstructure wasserkuehler which is first on the list to which the link below leads; http://www.caseumbau.de/index.php?pa...&kat=watercool

Any thought's, experiences, or in-put, from the experts here would be appreciated.

I'd also like to thank many of you who have helped me with my writing style. Looking back at my RBX nozzle comparison, I really went off the deep end in my pontification.

Design concepts mean nothing. Performance means everything. Unfortunately you lack the ability to properly show performance. Your testing methods are severely flawed as is the equipment used. Your review results unfortunately mean nothing. Especially being they are not compared against anything else which makes many of your comments look like advertising fluff.

Also this comment by you shows your lack of knowledge about water blocks:
Quote:
I can honestly say they may be the most innovative H20 PC-cooling company out there. Further evidence of this can be found in they're producing what I believe to be the only solid Silver water block on the market. Cool-Cases CCR-03 Silveredition 925-sterling CPU-Kuehler. In addition they make a 925-Sterling inlaid CPU-Kuehler, their CC-Magic Silver.
(Warning, bluntness to follow...)

Simply wrong. Everything in that design has been done on this site many moons ago. Much of it by myself and more importantly by Cathar. Little River Water Blocks is by far the most innovative and have made solid silver blocks. These blocks have been THE blocks to copy and try to match.

Your writing style seems to look much better. Now if you could find something to write about that you knew something about and can do right?

(Suggestion) Until you get the proper equipment and the knowledge to use it do everyone a favor and stop writing reviews on water blocks. You are doing more damage than good.

Were is the flow rate the block was tested at? Why wasn't it tested at multiple flow rates to create a performance curve? Were are the pressure measurements? Were are the needed water temp measurements?

If you don't test the block at multiple flow rates your wasting everyone's time. Each block has it's own restriction on the loop. One block may run at 1LPM and one might run at 4LPM in the very same loop. So you would not be able to compare these two blocks performance wise because of the 3LPM difference. They NEED to be tested at the same flow rates. This means flow a good flow meter, a good valve to adjust flow, and a decent pump. You also need pressure measurements.

If you have non of this then a review really means nothing.

Anyone can throw a block on and write a review. Very few can do it right. My questions to you:

Are you doing your readers a service by your reviews or a dis-service? Is your reviews main purpose to get higher ratings to the site or is the review an actual technical writing with useful and accurate information? What good does your review do the reader? Can they take the information used and somehow make a good purchasing decision?
