Well, since it was [H], what else to expect from them.. Ah well.
Two things stick out of this article:
1 - Top contenders are so close that thermal ability is not what one must consider anymore. Mounting system, price, warranty, dealer support, looks are now all more important than pure performance. Am i suprised ? Hell no, everyone knew that for ages.
2 - No Innovatek (in a performance-oriented review, not including the current #1 contender is a big no-no), no TC-4 and no Spiral, no CuPlex.. but instead of those top-of-the-line blocks we have some "commercial" POS (Maxxpert, iceberg, koolance) ... unsurprisingly, OCH products...

Mhh i was about to try and defend the article.. too bad. Fortunately [H] has about zero credibility amongst the geek population (at least those older than 14).
