Thanks rge. Looks like there is more than one way to "weed out" a block. The quality control will not be satisfactory for many on that Alphacool. Great picture by the way.
Again nice review by stren. I really like reading the thumb nuts of the Swiftech and EK mounting bottom out to make it easier to get the unit to perform as intended.
What are opinions about the CPU Waterblock Mount Variation (SD of 5 mounts)? Others looked at loose parts or number of steps necessary as a proxy for ease of mounting but the temperature variation of the 5 mounts seems like a very good proxy.
In this the mean is .44 and the SD +/- .26. The best are borderline 1 SD better than mean. The M6 is 1 SD worse than mean and the Heatkiller 3.0 and Rasa are nearly 2 SD worse than mean.
Will this "weed out" any blocks for anyone? We have already weeded out the Rasa. Would this remove the Heatkiller 3.0 for some as a new product recommendation? How about the M6? Thanks.
