Default Return of *gasp* CONTENT!

OK guys I just wanted to put a message up here and let you know that I'm not dead (just busy with work the last few months). I am in the middle of getting 3-4 different projects going for the site including:

1) Complete cooling system testing with pH test system 2.0alpha: AMD64-based rig for 99% more modern computing.
2) Providing some test results to the modellers in this thread
3) GPU block testing (FINALLY)

And I STILL haven't formatted/posted the Crater-block review, my old school waterblock comparison, or (haha)MMZ-Timelord's system build. Speaking of which, did that dude die or something? He doesn't seem to post any more.

It's summer and I expect to have a lot more free time to dedicate to the site.

And who knows, we might also see Joe put some work in on a Procooling redesign to make things simpler to update and manage.

It got better! I took off all heatsinks, wiped it with ethanol, and dried it out for a couple weeks. Replaced thermal paste and heatsinks and it worked perfectly in 3 days of gaming/stress testing/3dmark looping. So it goes. Now the Asus NForce2 is toast

I have had a rough time with mobo's lately. Lost 2 in a week. One because it was just time and the other my own fault. Glad decent Socket A mobo's are pocket change these days.

Looking foreward to your new system test bench. Do you still want to do DIY blocks? If so I can make new tops to the 2 blocks I would like to send you for socket 939. Will be a long time before I get around to it though. Want to get my own system bench up and run them through and then tweak them the best I can before I send them your way. Then I am not completely shooting in the dark like the last couple blocks.

I would love to see some tuitorials or interactive graphs for waterblock construction purposes. I'm halfway through my block but all sorts of little things are holding me up and I would love to get it finished!
