I also came from the [H], and when I look at the posts there now, it just seems like the forum never advanced on a technical level. People always seem to be asking the same questions and, which is OK, but I wanted to go deeper into the watercooling scene and learn more. I think Overclockers.com hit it right on the head. HardOCP is a more of a general hardware news portal, while ProCooling is a specialty site with a crystal clear purpose for existance.
The other problem is that the [H] is too well known for its General Mayhem and Soap Box forums that just attract spammers and flamers. My friend just cracks up in an annoying manner about a Soap Box thread, but has probably only stepped foot into the Overclocking forum maybe once or twice. It kinda showed when he overclocked his GF2Ti to the point where it screwed his screen up and applied the clock speeds everytime he restarted. I'm not saying that I've never done stupid things, but some people don't make good representatives sometimes, lol.
