It seems to make sense to me to have 4 distinct categories when evaluating a kit:
1) Ease of use (entry level =no modification to case is necessary for installation; emphasis given here on "fool proof"; typical means a few fan holes; advanced means some CNC req'd)
2) Quality of mfg (Goop? Leaks? Cobbled together in basement or absolutely stunning?)
3) Performance (lowest CPU temp wins)
4) Quiet (lowest noise levels win)
No kit would have perfect marks in all 4; can't be small and silent and cool...
BTW I am going to delete all car posts in this thread in 3...2...1
