Understandable but you gotta start somewhere :)

Here is some review tips:

Anything you write should have both an introduction and a conclusion.

Technical writing normally does not allow the use of pronouns (I, We, You, they) however most reviewers skip this, it is hard to be witty and follow this rule, but it is still doable.

A review consists of both empirical data and subjective observations.

Empirical is the benching that you do, can it handle this load and this ambient temp, in a case or on a test bench. Using dedicated hardware or software to monitor and chart the results. (Excel works really well for chart building)

Subjective means "your opinion." The difficulty level for installation, for instance is going to be different based on your experience level. A novice might find it difficult a pro might not. Use this in comparison with your own experience to create "subjective" points. Obviously these points will vary and why it is important to point out that they are your own opinions.

Appearance/aesthetics falls under opinion, and if you do not have a dedicated decibel meter than noise will as well. With no decibel meter comparing it to say fans you have laying around like yateloons, or deltas or what have you is a good way to convey sound level without a discrete measuring device. (most people do not understand decibels anyway)


Obviously no one person can cover everything at a high level, so try and focus on your strengths high level overclocker.. awesome use that to push the laod capabilities.. nothing really that can push the hardware tested? Focus on features and ease of use. etc

Outlines can help alot to keep your points in the right section. IE not talk about the mounting mechanism in say wPrime testing section lol.

Just some tips, feel free to ignore them :)

I signed up for the fun of it, I like the new water cooling products coming out these days. Lots of fun for gaming rigs .............. :thumbsup:

Gotta think that is what these TT products are aimed at.

[PhIlLy ChEeSe]

My bad I should have kept my mouth shut!

[Witchdoctor]

Well if I do it it will be real time screen shots so the truth will be told good, bad or indifferent, bought a scratch and dent Frio off there site for 25 buck that preforms outstanding,

I used to be into water cooling big back in the day before I got into sub ambient cooling, so this could be a lot of fun and you never know what they have come up with, My H70 does a great job on my gaming rig so who knows until you get your hands on it. I actually think this is a stand up move by TT as end users have no stake in it so the oppertunity to get unbiased reviews is increase expodentially.

I have to think they want the truth about their products so they have the best information possible to give the R&D dudes

[punx223]

Count me out as it has TT and "Honest review" in the same sentence :confused2:

lol wow tell me how you really feel :D

As of this time the Level 10 M is not ready for testing. :)

[MaadDaawg]

but someday it will be :muaha:

[PhIlLy ChEeSe]

How bout that new case, level 10 I think? I'd like to check one out..... Sorry bout my original post here! I had issue's with Thermaltake stuff before, but that was long ago.... When I was a noob :blush:.


I may pick up a PSU for a secondary unit, put it through its paces. Can you suggest a good high end unit for me? I like my new corsair AX1200 but I have had issue's with molex plugs, I really don't like them. Ultra used all molex plugs........Molex cuts down in voltage, plus not to mention the possibility of a bad connection, Etc.

Thanks TT man for offering this!!! :Hi:


PS. Post some scores! :scared:

[punx223]

Soon my Friend soon.....

I have a Gemini V2 ordered today :)

If we are hitting up shannon for reviews... I got nothing. Dont think T-T makes any cases that are not crazy spensive. And dont have any case review experience.
If you guys decide to get into making your own SSDs (cuz that is super easy, I can teach your kids how to use solder pots. sucks having to rework a PCB cuz your hands on kids cant dip an pull right.) Let me know.

I cant do the micro rework though, handed that off to old pros. I don't have the hands or patience to be honest, I loved the QA and RMA jobs myself. RMA especially.. QA helped with that I guess. I didn't just accept something was wrong had to learn why. Got into RMA. Cuz I was not allowed to fix stuff in QA had to learn how to say what was wrong though :).

Anywho.. a forum post for review, might be fun.. dont matter you have my submission already, hopefully it is random. Would love to see spliggy review it. Be nice to learn the l;imits of whatever it is you want reviewed. Cuz you know that is what he is doing.

I hope we all post in here if we are getting it. Oh BTW sold my X79 board.. but might have BD to in a minute to test it out on :) I mean an "8" core not the "4" core I currently have with my 6 core thuban.

Thanks, sweet little water 2.0 pro on the way :D lets see how many volts it can handle on ivy :) 1.6? 1.7?

[DOM]

Aww man I never signed up :P

I don't think theres going to be anything that can cool ivy besides ln2 right now :S

Even in my gtx 480 Rad after 1.4v it gets toasty on load

[thebanik]

Now this is just wrong, atleast give us a sneak peek Punx, :D

[PhIlLy ChEeSe]

Soon my Friend soon.....

he only bulk sells :thumbdown:

Cool Cool!

LIL friendly Competition is always healthy :morpheus:

haha i would say no :)

Its not made to compete with Custom high end LCS... it is more made for a simple install easy to use unit :)

1.7V Ivy you better be on cascade or DICE at the least

[Splave]

we'll see ;)

[punx223]

we'll see ;)

this is the part that scares me... O.o

[thebanik]

simple easy to install kits are available dozen a dime.....But is it better than H100???? :D ...Though I will be honest, Punx, please do not mind, you would also agree that TT has never made a decent Top Air or Water cooler....They might look good but they cost too much and performance is among the worst. The only thing TT made and I love is the Original Level 10. Wish I would some day have the moolah to buy it and keep it in my drawing room inside the showcase

[Splave]

actually frio OCK was pretty good imo, little expensive but comes with 2 fans and controller :)

[MaadDaawg]

I'd have to agree with Splave, the Frio OCK kicks ass in the air cooling department.. can't wait to test out my new Frio extreme...:D what a monster :eek: :laughing:

At firt I thought the OCK was a little too colorful, but once inside a build it actually looks pretty hot :thumbsup:

[Mr.Scott]

A few of the older vid card and chipset HS's were really decent too.;)

These units you can tell who makes them just look at them I dont think anyone has any qualms understanding this.

However the Bigwater series has grown long in the tooth and has been surpassed by all the new AIO like WATER2.0 is.

now this is why I am doing the community reviews so people can see the LCS offerings are on better track now.

cause you suck at games :taunt:
Hey now! all he needs to do is bench, no need for him to have fun! that's what we are here for :p

As of this time the Level 10 M is not ready for testing. :)
