winewood you don't know what you are talking about regarding Bill. He privately has helped me a great deal, and now that he is at swiftech and not testing blocks for overclockers he has offered to cross calibrate with my test system and JoeC's at overclockers. In theory, that would put Bill's results, mine, and JoeC's all on the same page. What more do you want?
I HAVE acceptable gear for testing and just cant get the time to put up results. And when I get close with using a CPU I always fry something. Sad but true. I cannot come forward and sing campfire tunes and tell everyone they can get meaningful data with a $20 compunurse and a bucket for flow rates. It just can't happen. There are plenty of people who are doing qualitative waterblock testing, and for example Cathar has gotten by quite well with that. If you want truly quantitative work though then simple overclocker tools aren't going to get you there. No matter how much you want to make it so.
