Holy thread hijack!
It's great though. You guys are having a great discussion. If I can throw my 2 cents in:

This site is alot like me. I (and this site) have pretty much solved the water cooling problem...I'm getting overclocks good enough to post on other forums...so what next? For me, the joy is in the planning and execution. Like this site I'm looking to something else to plan and execute...silent computing doesn't intrest me, nor does home theater. I'd like to "pop some tops" but without some guidance (BillA....DATA!) it's kinda like jumping off a cliff...and that's where this site is...as you have been discussing...what's next? What cliff to jump off?

For me, I'm currently bighting into air removal,. I have the tools and knowledge I need to jump off that cliff.

When one of the best blocks ever developed is taken out of distribution for marketing reasons what's the point of new water cooling threads here, much less the development of a new testbed?

I love the challenge of "figuring it out". And I hope this site (and it's members) do also. Because a forum is a communitie's "work in progress" I'll just have to wait and see what happens...and through my 2 cents in every now and then!
