Giving advice based on your own tests is fine. Claiming a product "sucks" because it performs 1-2 degrees worse than other blocks is a bit much but not out of line. But making insinuations that someones tests are laughable when that person is clearly more than credible and experienced in water cooling is insulting to him and anyone else who performs an honest test and gets different results than you.
Gabe freely and openly allows it to be known he is the owner of Swiftech unlike former and current members on this site who are secretly affiliated with a company and push those companies products under the mask of a mere customer who "swears" the product is the BEST.
Gabe has never made it a secret that h is the owner of Swiftech and he's been a member for quite some time. In addition he knows there are many water cool savy members who can easily perform tests as well, if not better than him so for him to attempt to pass faulty results on the members of this site is a gross insult to him or anyone of average intelligence. Duplicate his exact test and if you get significantly different results, let us know otherwise respect his results as he has respected yours.
The absolute truth. All of the sudden Swiftech has gotten too "mainstream" and too easy for those damn noobs to use so now using a product that is much more difficult to install and doesnt even have an english language website is "cool".
And ease of mounting as well as price and support all need to be taken into account. Is the HK worth the additional $50 with backplate for 2 degrees? Maybe so, but at $50 cheaper and 2 degrees worse, the GTZ is still a top block.
And no, I don't have a GTZ or an HK.
