To be honest, it doesn't upset me much at all.
This upsets me.
It's $207.

And it sucks.
Look at this great rad. Now look at what it's made of.

Congratulations, you just made me upset myself.
Out of curiosity, what's your beef with the first part? Aside from the price? You could probably do worse for a single 5 1/4" bay device that contains a reservoir, a DDC 3.2 pump, a fan controller, and temperature sensors.

This is my first liquid cooling system and i couldn't be any more happier with it. Great product for great price. Deff Worth it!
LOL...I still have one of those in the Attic.. It was my first water cooling experience and to no suprise my old scythe infinity air cooler outpermed it even on my dual core. It was also a system a friend gave me because he didn't trust it. I don't blame him either, within a couple of months, the pump failed, cracked, and leaked and killed his brand new 8800gtx which had just come out at premium priced. He gave me the new RMA system that was given to him after his catastrophy.Quote:

I'll have you guys covered in a few months. I'm developing a steel cored radiator with Al end caps. It'll go perfect with those finely machined copper blocks. :rofl:
Disclaimer:I am NOT serious.
This is probably the only All in one cooling kit that is any good.
And most here would probably agree.

Review of the single 120 version.
By all accounts it's no better that an Air cooler :D

Im talking about the dual rad version.
Oh Yay! It's RR to the rescue.:rofl: The only thing worth watching his videos for are the screw ups at the end. :ROTF:Quote:

Upsetting XS LC section
1. Non-conductive coolants are GREAT! Look at my pretty fan bathing in it!
2. Look at my Koolance XXX! Ain't they pretty too?
3. UV DYES~~!
4. Mysterious growth in a loop, with the above 3 items being the prime suspects
5. GTZ vs V2 vs Supreme, each represented by fanboiz
6. Thermochill PA vs Feser TFC, represented by fanboiz, with guest appearance by Marci
7. Mysterious particles in a loop with a Thermochill rad, followed by a brisk exchange of cleaning methods that rapidly degenerates into pt no. 6
8. Thermaltake!!!!111!!!1 OMGWTFBBQ!!1111!!!!
Feel free to expand the list :)
9. Omg, So Blingy !!!
11. The air cooled gallery. All those people still on air cooling :( (Water cooled gallery pwnz!)
It reminds me of my first kit CoolerMaster Aquagate mini R80. It got my X2 temp down but the damded pump failed after 2 months.
Well itīs always good to start from somewhere and playing it safe if one doesnīt have the balls to build a wcing loop from the scratch.

So you guys wanna play nasty huh with yah Aluminium and ThermalTake kits will take this then 80mm Aluminium rads on top of a copper block :D
