I barely understood that... but I'm saying that more recent comparisons should be referenced. I'm pretty sure bundymania at XS showed off his results within the past week, I'll look for them.
Edit; for everyone, this is an important update, both by Vapor and by Koolance (for their new CPU-360 block). 2nd edit; OK, found it, Juggalo. http://www.hardwareluxx.de/community...d.php?t=611143 (updated on the 1st of the month, will be updated again when he finishes up with that new Koolance block) |
I wish it was in English though, oh well my fiance knows german and so does her mom
