    Because that’s literally their whole job. Their justification for testing something on hardware it wasn’t intended for is that they (LTT) didn’t want to spend the money on their end required to do their job properly.

    It’s not about the product in question. It’s about their clearly inadequate processes and considerations, prioritizing profits over accuracy. Kinda terrible for a company trying to break into the whole accuracy market with their testing and data.

      That video was not a review. So no, in this case that was not their job. Their job was to entertain. I agree they have inadequate processes and are prioritizing profits over accuracy for their reviews. But that is not relevant to the water block video.

        Nah, I am not buying that. They gave an opinion based on data they collected. That is a review, even if they don’t call it that.

          review: a formal assessment or examination of something with the possibility or intention of instituting change if necessary.

          What about the video was formal? It is two people dicking around with water cooling for 20 minutes it’s not a formal review.
