    Hello, Got a DM asking how much I paid for shipment (China to UK, via Superbuy). Here is what I sent to the learned friend:

    Hi, I only have 1 280 GTS, and the other 2 (top & bottom) are HWLabs L Series; a proper GTS 280 is too wide, by approximately 1 to 2 mm on each side. Same with SR2. (If you do want to run dual 280 GTS in SFF, the best bet would be the Winter One which was specifically revised to support that...

    Thanks, dual 18W DDC would be ideal if there is space. In order to do that I may have to build a custom PSU which is smaller to yield sufficient space or source a radiator with inlets/outlets on corners like the XSPC TX series in order to properly mount two DDC pumps to it. An obvious...

    Thanks, current flow rate is 110 to 115 l/h at full speed, 55 l/h at half speed, this is with a 12W DDC. Getting rid of all air pockets and removing all possible gunk was very important. This contributed to a roughly 25% gain of flow rate in my scenario, and I was using new coolant after...

    @WinterCharm I think there is an antidote to this whole madness. Make your own videos including a full build, and information on airflow & thermals. Provide your own control group, do your own marketing and let the product sell itself. If any reviewer wants a sample, then make them buy it from...

    Production Aquanaut Basic/Extreme - Ultra Low Profile CPU Block & Pump Mount Combo

    Hi, it is actually still very bad optics, as I can not trust this product as-is now & will not be able to use it in any upcoming build, due to this quality concern (given the risk of the entire top cracking, especially with the pump mounted to it). I could see the defect with my naked eye but...

    You will probably need a special ATX power supply bracket that secures the power supply to the front. It is not included in the scope of delivery by default, but the SFX bracket (included) might work with a SFX/ATX adapter. The seller has been unresponsive for more than a month now, though. I...

    I have received the current product earlier and can now confirm that what I have received is within acceptable parameters as per the vendor (see quote block). Here is what I have received in detail, directly out of the package. I will not be seeking an RMA here

    The new cold plate is probably the most definite change you can make to the product indeed, congratulations. If you could use the same holes as the Optimus plate then you could consider offering a no-plate version (since you already offer no-pump). Next step would be to raise QA bar on the...
