For example, I would suggest just getting several heatercores and ditching the Zalman reserator idea. It is expensive and pretty. If you don't want fans and don't mind something being less pretty, use several thin radiators with a lot of area (wide and tall but not deep). The depth of a radiator (such as a heatercore) is what makes it need a fan to achieve any performance.
Spinky, sorry you had a bad experience. Not all the people here are abrasive.

Brian > nods, i know, when i was here when i first registered, people were more helpful and not acting "knowledgble" by constant flaming. and back then i learnt more than now. since out of 10 replies only 2 are really useful.
i believe i started the other reserator thread asking for opinions (and also to improve its performance) it ended up in flames with no explaination whatsoever.
i appreciate if people said "product X sucks because it doesn't work as well for the cash and you can get much better performance and almost similar noise levels with this setup such & such"
if you noticed, the ones bashing it was just that..bashing. they are not constructive. abusive more likely.
SlaterSpeed > i did search before posting the reserator topic, why don't you do a search yourself and see how many returns you get?
general reviews show the reserator as "acceptable", so i came here to see what the pro's think. newbies don't learn anything when you tell them it sucks period. that will turn them into flaming newbs who don't know the "whys" and the "hows" and all they know is to flame. surely i see a trend here
Karantanec > omg i hope it doesnt topple down! and yes those chieftec/antec cases are heavy!
