One thing I will guarantee. You will learn a whole heckuva lot more in the process of trying to do it right than you ever would any other way.
Good luck, JD.

This is exactly why I posted this thread. To get opinions on what people would rather see. A bunch of graphs and technical info that they either do not understand, or are not patient enough to care to understand, or simply do not WANT to understand, or simple numbers they can absorb. Most people like convenience.
They are not buying a water cooling setup to understand how it works, they are buying it because it works.
I understand BillA/unregistered's point of view (I think). He would like to see people educate themselfs about what makes a water cooling system work and/or how each part works. And then from his testing they can decide better what to buy?.?. The problem with this is (IMO) most people do not want to learn what makes the system work. They just want someone to tell them this block, this pump, this rad, ect will give you good results. They want to be told what works well, not how it works. Which I think I can provide with a certain level of accuracy, but abviously not total accuracy.
There is no way I can provide the quality of results that unregistered puts out. But I do belive I can put out usable results for people the base decent decisions on that are far better than the average review. Which is my over all goal. I am pretty confident with all the articles from unregistered and others that I can put together a pretty solid test bed that is good enough to show the true possibility of the parts being tested, not neccasarily the absolute posibilites but a very good generalization of it. Which I see a total lack of right now in most reviews.
I may totally fail in this, but it is sure going to be worthwhile however it turn out, at least for me.
I have a pretty good idea how I am going to focuse my work. I will go into greater detail once I get it better thought out and then I will post it so get some better input on where I maybe going wrong.
