Take a look at the galleries one day. The builds might as well be carbon cpies of each other. It is UTTERLY boring. I know what the build has in it before I see the pictures. There's no personality other than what the concensus is. There isn't an individual among you.

"Welcome to the club, now buy a D-Tek FuZion CPU block, a Thermochill radiator, use 100% distilled water, use nothing less than 7/16" tubing, and an EK block for your 8800 so we won't flame you =D"
Very true of this forum and most others out there, which has hurt the water cooling community as a whole. It is great to see that opinion changing as of late. The best thing to happen is people understand the TRUE trade offs when differing from "the norm". To me "the norm" is boring too and doesn't help drive creativity.

Doesn't mean other solutions don't work too. Given the recent revelations maybe better than most people wanted to beleive.
