What bother me is from previous waterblock performance testing, wb performance gains are incremental and not large and competitive WB perform within that range of 2C. Suddenly we are seeing performances differences of 2, 4, 6 C and this bothers me and they isn't a consistent pattern.

One reason, with a unique a kentfield cpu and the two core package it's hard to compare

Two, most of these reviews are done by first time reviewers. I praise their effort but anyone who was done past reviews it takes time to get the magic down.

H20 Frag-monger reviews: heat die area is too large at 30x30mm.

Nikhsub reveiw: mounting temps vary too much.

CES event: we talked about that fiasco

VR-zone: Kentsfield testbed. # of mountings? Fan info cfm or rpms ? 91C load temps? I seen similar setups with aircoolers at 60 C...

Freecableguy: Kentsfield testbed. Probably the best overall review but i don't agree with his final DT and final load temps and heat dissipated from cpu.
