NOTHING at all. Never was, and I never claimed... I loved my 3 visits to the Netherlands. Hoop Holland!
edit: I bet Hilbert's upset now...

I would assume those are regarding the previous version.
Let's hope DeepCool fixed all previous issues with this "updated design" in the new PRO version.

maybe, a bunch of their older aios are on sale on newegg , some as much as 40% off, trying to get rid of old stock, before refreshing their product line maybe?
I know someone that lost a brand new x99 motherboard to one of their aios....

Nice to see the next iteration of this cooler, I've bought the normal Captain 120 RGB a while back strictly based on the looks.

RIP x99 mobo.
Imo a recall/rma of bad batches(if possible to identify anw) would be a better move from DeepCool than having units out there discounted or not with potential leakage and a possibility to damage consumer's hardware.
In case any potential buyers who may come across this thread, test it thoroughly before installing(like powering it up and run it for some time first before install).

So, still no reason to get anything other than the Corsair H110i.

Anyone have an idea of the benching table they are using in this review ? seems pretty small. I'm searching desperately a small banch table not expensive and so far what I saw it's way to pricy for me.
