    No, as i said, HES had a good bed.
    His results were partially good, he had some problems where it showed he favored another product.

    I have no problems with some of HES's test, its this other test that was shown on this thread i have a problem with.

    People are linking BAD tests, and other people think its a real solution.

    Meh.. i give up..
    First off bentlya is a friend of mine... and he knows what im talking about.

    I have other EU testers which are good, like my friend valen from RO.
    However his results never see's XS, there only meant for his web site over in RO.

    If your going to make a test public do it right.

    OK... im gonna appologize to the EU people.
    I dont mean to offend you guys, i mean to offend your testers.

    Bad testing has always been a quam of mine, im tired of people thinking a test is real because its on a front page.
    Or a test is valid because someone with a lot of toys posted it.

    Well, i want to spark a revolution where we dont need to worry about false info, although it will never happen.
    But its best to spark fear in the new so they start properly, then correct them when there half established.

    And if your a great tester, and u can show me your a great tester, im known to lend out a ton of stuff to testers to play with.
    Ask any of our reputable testers this.

    If someone from EU is gonna start off, and u have a solid bed, i seriously wouldnt mind lending my stuff to them as long as they pay for the shipping cost.
    Thats the person i am.

    (for an independent, i have a LOT of toys also.)

    However if they spark a wierd test where they pull out values from the impossible, like a black hole, i will lay a can of whoop ass period.
    EU or American.

    However i just see it more on the EU side when it comes to water.

    NaeKuh - EU suxx - the system I mean, it's made for holding people down - especially the salaries. My country isn't a EU member but have to pay billions to the poor EU countries to get access to the EU markets.
    My country spends unbeliveable amounts of money in poor third world countries - but almost no money on our own country.
    The money spent in the third world is a waste - they don't develope anyway - the only thing that developes is corruption.

    I have the advantage of being an American living in Europe for many years now so I can see the situation from both sides. In the EU forums I have seen thus far the folks seem to think their ways are superior and that all the yanks on this forum are a bunch of yahoos. Skamps calling NaeKuh a redneck is the pot calling the kettle black.

    I too also know Bentleya, but I agree. Hence why I come here and find a real review. Seriously - someone linked me a review over in the UK where a guy testing dual D5's suggested it outputted 500LPH when both are on full.... er what? The testing procedure was so laughable I immidiately dismissed it and the persons comment and told them to look for a REAL review.

    All testers have their methods - wherever you go you find a specific way of testing. That means that different tests of the same product really cant be compared from site to site. The only way to say that THAT product is BETTER is to visit a site that has done a lot of tests using the same equipment.

    The average Joe gives a sheit in advanced tests that includes mm head, flow aso. Joe reads results - and looks is very important for him too. You hear these things in the lunchbreak every day - THAT LOOKS SIMPLY RAW - I WANT ONE ! Performance is number 2...

    @ sak.2105. I have ordered directly from EK many times. They ship pretty quickly as well. Eddy runs a tight ship that is for sure. Nothing to worry about.

    no problems with buying at EK directly so far.

    Another possibility in Germany: www.A-C-Shop.de
    The owner Jochen is able to manage the nickelplating for you in extremly good quality. He is working on mine at the moment, too

    I usually get my EK stuff from docmicro.com (in France) - might be faster for the UK... They have the new HF block already.

    ****sigh**** Just catching up on this thread.

    Can you guys please stop generalizing? I'm sooooo tired of people saying test results from a certain region are no good / biased - and that individual testers are biased, or are shilling for a given vendor. Does it happen - yeah, maybe it does. Do we know conclusively when it does? I don't think so.

    As individuals, we have the opportunity to read reviews from a number of different testers - and make our buying decisions based on those reviews - IF we trust them. If we don't trust a particular reviewer, then don't read their reviews. If you want to refute an individual tester's results - present facts to back up your arguments, and stay away from personal/regional attacks. This just seems like common sense to give your arguments more credibility.

    I swear, I don't know why people are still testing, because they get abuse no matter what they post. I do, however, appreciate and welcome test results from all parts of the world. Unfortunately, I think we've lost the contributions of some of the testers for one reason or another.

    (Just my aggravated 2 cents worth ...)

    Back O.T. ....

    How would this compare for temps on a Phenom II X4 against the original D-Tek Fusion ?
    I recently changed my system, and am still using the D-Tek, just wondering how many deg cpu core temp I could lose by swapping out the Fusion with this block ?
    System is Laing DDC 10w pump /w xspc top, Thermochill pa120.3, XPSC bay Res, EK5850FC and Fusion.

    Temps always depend on the overclock. At stock you may only see a 2-3C difference, at the max stable overclock (achievable with the Fusion) the Supreme HF is probably around 5-8C better, allowing for a slightly higher max overclock
