    Radiator, is HWLabs the best, or is there a better option now?

    ive seen some report that theirs were clean after one good flush but for the most part they are pretty dirty and require a couple. Alphacool is about the same. IIRC Watercool/Heatkiller cleans theirs.

    There is alot of garbage in them from the manufacturing process. Flux, etc that needs to be flushed out before use.

    HW Labs are good they are just really dirty, Alphacool rads are good, Watercool/Heatkiller rads are also really good

    EK in hot water again?

    Share your pfSense / OPNsense builds

    20g routing with NGFW features enabled. This is an effort to reduce power draw from my current Dell R620 that is currently my router. Because i like to go fast. I have a 48 port 10g switch, all of my servers have 10g. It came with them. I took them out in effort to switch from SATA 960GB SSDs...

    Share your pfSense / OPNsense builds

    Finally got the Intel X550-T2 and Intel X710-DA2 NICs in and installed and got some time to install opnsense 24.1. Using a ZFS mirror on the 960g SSDs. Just have to configure the interfaces then i think im ready to upload my cfg. Still throwing around the idea of disabling cores.

    ESXi free 8.0 seems to be the last one !

    I 100% agree with this. We run two HyperV HA Clusters connected to a SAN in production with none of these issues.
