I don't get this. The reviewer bashes a beta sample of the "Pentalpha Aqualia", because the pump doesn't work (he fails to mention it's a 110V pump, which he powers with 230V....) and it leaks. Having no experience what-so-ever with watercooling, my guess he didn't use the "quick connect" fittings properly rather than a production error.

It might very well be a crappy product, but bashing a product like he did is wrong... i don't blame pentalpha for being mad @datafuse.

Know the facts, judge afterwards, ffs.

yeah sure, I didn't use "the "quick connect" fittings properly", especially since the water came out of a hole in the reservoir itself.

ah whtvr, btw pentalpha will NOT reply on anything you send them.

already emailed the first email address a couple of weeks ago, no reply what so ever.

yeah sorry bout my pretty rude reply, but I went to bed today @ 8 o'clock am, so I'm not really up for jokes (or I wasn't at that time).

Hmm, I'm not quite sure, but I think I even emailed that Ho-Li dude.

Ah, does it even matter?

If everything goes well, I'll get a real nice watercooling kit showed at Cebit last week, seems to be very good.
