Hurt you like UPS did my new case that one time. I swear, there's this huge chunk torn out of the box like they feast upon them. Case had a big dent but I popped it out using a ding king.

That UPS guy that delivered the parts for my build was pretty cool. Went he handed me the box with the motherboard, CPU, RAM and PSU in it he said, "this is the box with the good stuff in it."

I suppose I could throw together an HR-05 Plus review for this month but it won't be totally complete because certain pictures would be missing.




I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220

Well many thanks for the recognition. I would not call what I wrote a review, more like a small demonstration of temperature measurment. Something to give the membership an idea of how heat is generated between Idle and Full Load on a CPU.

I have an idea for a similar demonstration using fans. Not to review fans or fan controllers but to possible show how the different methods of fan speed control that are used in cooling and how the actual speed of the fan is measured. Something informative but not really a review of any specific fan or fan controller.

Just as soon as I get this mess I call a computer / work room somewhat organized.

Thanks again for the recognition, it is much appreciated.

Ron

No, thank you, and everyone else who has contributed to this.

User guides and reviews should be a big part of any website, as your experiences are "real world".

I wish that more people would have gotten involved, and i wish Newegg was better about getting out the gift certificates. I am not sure what the deal is, but i've emailed them again asking where the ones they promised are.

Regardless, the chance to have your name published on a website, and the ability to contribute to a community project should be plenty of motivation.
