Well said myv65.
I feel I fall into A (maybe optomistic) more so than B, but will not deny I am ignorant either.

Bah, it doesn't go anywhere because:
"A" Anyone with brains enough to do it right is smart enough to realize that financially it is a fool's venture.
"B" Anyone without enough brains either gets frustrated and gives up or educates themself and then falls under category "A".

It really is a fool's venture. Your not going to get your money back you put into it unless your a manufacture and the numbers are essential to sell your product which obviously isn't the case for PC water blocks. What would we really be trying to prove here? Block A is better than block B? Do we really need to be that anal about it to acomplish this? Is the (from Bens earlier post) the $1,000 minumum really needed to say the DD maze 4 is better than the DD maze 3?
I am pretty certain I can do this without spending to much money after the research I have done to come to the conclusion not to bother with the advanced test bench.
But what else are we trying to do? Come up with the capability to pre-build a system and know how it is going to work before hand? If so, for what? It is only going to be a matter of time before the oriental's kick everyone's ass in pre-built ready to install kits that perform well and are cheaper than we can make a block let alone a complete kit. Only a matter of time untill demand is high enough they put their
already designed water cooling products into mass production.
By the time all this gets ironed out the cause will have been lost to other circumstances.
Non the less I am still with your Ben. Anything I can do let me know. Would it not be better to go down in flames trying than not try at all?
