  1. The best chair you'll ever sit in. I work from home and i'm on my computer most of the time. No back pain or whatever. Simply the best that money that can buy.
  2. lol...very rarely do other components heat up faster than the core. thats why you can use thermal epoxy and stick on shitty little heat sinks on the vrms and vram for non full coverage water blocks.
  3. Jesus christ, maybe you should go read the british medical journal or something, cause clearly youtube is too much entertainment for you.
  4. i mean...if the die is the highest point, then the waterblock would still cool the die, your VRMs and mosfets and ram chips may suffer due to using a probably thicker thermal pad though.
  5. That's what I'm saying. If there was any ground for BilletLabs to make a claim, they would of already done so.
  6. K great! They published a set of numbers. So billet labs should be suing LTT right now for some good money. Defamation? yum yum Or is it more than likely than their numbers are "subjective" and won't stand up in court?
  7. It's interesting of you to assume that i have no idea how machined parts work or how tight of a tolerance you can work with. So why don't you tell me how tight of a fin array you can CNC? Or do you know what the smallest CNC router bit would be? I've been saying this whole time, you guys are trying to argue that this block MAY PERHAPS perform well. I'm saying based on it's design, it has several fatal flaws and would be HIGHLY UNLIKELY, in fact IMPROBABLE that it would perform well. As stated several times above, water blocks aren't magic, it's a heat transfer device. How does heat transfer work? it's a combination of surface area, material used and flow rate. NOW: Material used: Dead even The billet labs block is copper and so is basically every good water block. There would be no statistical advantage. Surface area: all other water blocks by far The billet labs block uses a CNC'ed cold plate and fin array, all other companies use skived fin arrays. As you clearly don't know, there is simply no way a CNC machine can generate the same density fin array as a skiving machine can. Flow rate: all other water blocks by far The jet plate on the billet labs piece is a means to direct flow into their fin design and has to fit within their physical design space limit. The jet plates of EKWB etc have been fluid tested etc. See? there is no way and no reason to even test the billet labs block, the billet labs block IS and always will be just an artisanal piece until they revise their design and use skived cold plates.
  8. It doesn't even matter... GPUs are heat emitters. In fact when new GPUs and CPUs are released, Cooling component manufacturers aren't even given the actual CPU / GPU to test with, they simply use a heat block and pump 105w or 170w or 370w etc into it, and attach the cooler to test. The fatal flaw of this block is that the cold plate is CNC'ed and not Skivved. There are no CNC bits small enough to yield a high density fin array like a skivving machine can offer. Does that make sense to you? Hell you might actually want to watch the video on how water blocks are made on your lord and savior GN's channel.
  9. I mean like i said, we kind of do know... it's not some black magic...the density of the cold plate was far inferior to mass produced blocks which have specialized skivving machines to create many many more fins....
  10. You really like spinning things eh? From memory Linus basically said it was not worth retesting because the price and performance would still not yield a favorable review based on the design of the block.
  11. And i have debunked said person's argument. Again there is no point in retesting it, I would not retest it either. What would be the point, to give you another comparison. What's the point of testing a 2024 honda civic against at 2024 Huracán?
  12. I don't think that's the job they accepted. I believe BilletLabs wanted exposure and sent their artisanal block to LTT to be featured. If indeed it was sent for a "review" then BilletLabs should be filing papers to sue LMG.
