    j/k...

    you guys always know my point on this:

    It is better to ask the stupid question, and get us laughing at you, but saving you a OOPS, then to make the OOPS, and then come on the forum crying about a how bad watercooling is when you did it completely WRONG

    Chances are, you wont get laughed at.
    Maybe a stern why dont you use search, but that would be the extent of it.
    We would still fix your oops b4 you commited it, and save you a remorse.

    QFT. ...there is a lot but I've seen more before.

    I've noticed this is now forum-wide, not just this water cooling section.

    Someone just called me out for using and recommending a "second-rate" CPU...one made by AMD. I don't know why I even try.

    GREEN VS BLUE!!!!!!!

    :P

    its not as bad as RED vs Green tho...

    And i also recomend AMD's to people whose budget wont merit an intel system.
    Also not everyone needs intel systems.

    Noobs believe you can type 1 page more on an intel system because it goes:

    I got a laugh out of the video, so it wasn't totally useless.

    As far as being uneducated about water cooling though, my first water cooling setup was the Thermaltake Aquarius like 6 years ago. At the time it didn't even occur to me to see if websites like this one even existed.

    Im not sure why people are getting butthurt about this.
    If do a search you will find I do not use their coolants for a couple reasons mainly due to their containing Ethelyn glycol. There are some who will hate on companies such as Feser regardless of the product being discussed.

    The only thing RodneyReynolds is good for is if the company makes small useless photos of their products (CoolerMaster) and you want to see more detailed views of it before you purchase it online.


    His advice is useless and all of his reviews end up as 100% Kick A$$.

    I understand bud. Just wish others could take a look in the mirror and see things for what they really are. This stuff is supposed to be a fun hobby. Once a hobby turns to fighting it is time to move on.

    I am using Feser currently in my setup, without dye, but that was just because I got it free. Typically I use distilled water, either way works and a degree is not going to make a difference. The fact that people get all excited over what amounts to 5 degrees when discussing water blocks is what cracks me up. I say go with what you like, have fun and you will live a lot longer.

    You know, 5 degrees is a lot when regarding my second-rate processor

    The difference between 55c and 50c is enough to gain me about 100 Mhz

    His earlier work was actually pretty decent... I subscribed to him in like 2008 and I got my basics from him, but he's turned into an outdated sellout that reads the specs on the PSUs *gasp*
    Signatures make my posts look huge... but I'm not humble enough to completely remove my signature, so I kept this note explaining it.

    Not sure what you're trying to say here but there was no need to clean my blocks at all... I think most people who have had problems with Feser either forgot to clean their rad and blocks thoroughly or they just have a third factor that's causing all the crap to clogg in the blocks.

    I've read more threads about fogged hoses and f'ed up reservoirs with distilled + ptnuke than Feser threads.

    All I know is it worked for me, and 1 huge anti Feser thread made it look as if Feser One sucked but I don't think that is true.

    Which is why I still take a rather dim view of Feser's...aggressive and confrontational business practices. I can't imagine I'm alone in that.

    Based on hearsay. If YOU personally had a problem with them that is one thing. If I want gossip I will go watch a teenage drama on the WB.

    Which is why I think it's wrong to bash an entire company over something that didn't happen to you or someone close, or with concrete proof. If you have a crappy experience with a certain product, that go bash the product. It doesn't make the company a criminal.

    exactly. When I bash Thermaltake I have pictures of my cracked block. I do not attack them personally but instead their water-cooling products. The Feser situation is the opposite. I have not heard anyone say their products suck (if you want to try to say that step up - I have their rads and tubing in my rig now - good temps -great performance).

    people should stop acting like highs-school girls.

    Lol, in all seriousness, their tubing is actually pretty good, I really like it . I've never had the oppurtunity to play with their liquid, but that's also because I've seen what it has done to several rigs, which made me quite cautious .
