Default Swiftech H20-120 Kit @ 3DGameman

Uh... BillA, I have a question for you? When people do reviews of your products, especially video reviews where you can see what they are doing, aren't they supposed to at least plumb the block properly? Last I checked, according to Swiftech documentation, the center barb was the inlet. Not the offcenter one. As well, since when does a review need 9 minutes of showing how to install the kit, and 30 seconds of discussion on the performance show proper balance? I mean, there was zero discussion on how he got temps, what he used for load, etc etc (the usual beefs). Watching this I felt my intelligence was being insulted.

Well, it appears he did follow things as the documentation told him to.



But that picture doesn't quite jive with this:



Am I missing something?

You're quite right. In the first picture the routing is showing this:

pump outlet->reservoir->waterblock outlet->radiator->pump inlet

Someone needs to correct the first diagram.

No problem. I like to think I've been trained to pay attention to detail when I read/see things, but it still scares me that no one else noticed this first (and spoke up anywhere). Like say, the reviewer himself. Or any of the large number of people who have seen this review before me. At least those within your company got it fixed before it became a widespread issue. On a positive note, it still got an award even being hooked up backwards.
