look at that, they void the warrenty if you put anything in the water to stop corrosion which is more likely to happen in their systems instead of most others due to the copper and Al mix inside the waterblock.

but wait, this gets better, they sell water wetter on their site, right here https://www.overclockershideout.com/...tegory_Code=AH and no, i'm not finished yet either, they include water wetter in every kit, and 4 of those have that exact pump, and water wetter included.

in short, if you follow the instructions, you void your warrenty, and och can effectively tell you to get ****ed, and you can go away. you lose your warrenty on everything

dude that just bites the big one... holy crappola... and I am sure that they know what they are doing.... just so they can say as you said **** off!

WebMasta33 · 03-11-2002, 10:21 AM

WTH? They admin said that the antifreeze killed the pump?

I highly doubt that antifreeze can kill any pump alone... I wonder how good those pumps are when they say that antifreeze killed the pump.

Dear god I hate those jackasses. "OK everyone repeat after me, Overclockers Hideout is conducting Internet Fraud...can we all say Internet Fraud?"

Someone should report them to the BBB, FBI, or FCC. This is just rediculous.

I urge you to go to their forums, spend some time there. Almost every single post is edited if it mentions a swiftech, or even another brand of case. I bet most of the posts are deleted too. I've joined up, as a new member, I haven't been 'approved' yet, but i'm going to ask why they think the DDen maze2 is crap, and why their block is god. I'm going to come across very noobish, say all the reviews say the Z4 is best (cause the reviewers are corrupt) and why some other people seem to think that the maze2 is the best, when clearly the Z4 is a much better block.

then see how much is edited, it should be fun

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 07:23 PM

Did you see the new thread there?

"Why the Z4 is the best"

Then at the bottom it mentions that you have to read the rules before posting.

I found this thread extremely entertaining:

http://www.overclockershideout.com/c...ct=ST;f=3;t=11

I was a member there over a year ago. For some unknown reason they keep restarting their BB and deleting everything. Maybe its because things get out of control. :shrug:

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 07:30 PM

And did you know that a GF3 will put more heat into the water than an Athlon XP?

I just learned that at OCH too. Thats the reason one guy has 45C water temps.

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 07:46 PM

Hey Brad, were you unforseen?

Jason711 · 03-11-2002, 08:06 PM

look at the last post

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 08:24 PM

Looks like a few people have been over there.

Whatyousay?

ROFL they took the board down, probably for damage control.

Jason711 · 03-11-2002, 10:18 PM

i wonder what their face looked like when they saw those posts..

<---- which one??

Joe · 03-11-2002, 10:33 PM

jason you forget, they dont care so it was prolly like:

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 10:35 PM

Probably this one:

or this one:

mx-6* · 03-11-2002, 10:39 PM

I think the weakest thing about the place is their "RULES"

You can only say good things about their stuff

You can't promote other companies stuff

So all you can really say is how wonderful their products are. If you say anything else, they delete your post. That alone is enough reason for me to not buy from them, even if they sold quality stuff, which they dont.

Can you believe that waterwetter that they sell killed the punp that they also sell?

Can you believe the price of that pump that can't even handle waterwetter?
