its weird. ornaqgat likes to argue about nothing :confused:

when shown tom's either lied or was incompetent, he asks why we didn't know that sooner :roll:

How have I been a troll? Post a link and show where I have been trolling.
I brought up some very pertinent points w/r to psu testing.

You and some others however are quick to descend to ad hominem remarks.

So I repeat - johnny - tell us why Toms Hardware is so bad as you claim in your earlier post when you responded ""Well... come on..... Tom's Hardware??? Let's be realistic."

Remember that this is before you even knew about the ripple test which no one seems to know the story yet. Why don't you ask THG about it?

dude, stop splitting hairs.

tom's was shown to either lie or be incompetent, yet you want to wraggle about who knew what when.

its all pretty pointless. you touted tom's and xbit as some holy grail of psu testing and their testing was proven to be, at best, flawed.

OK?

:laugh:

i dunno. you read that article and tell me they did a "good job".

tooled up for this new adventure.

THG sold-out to the ad dollar$ long ago ;)

You 'dunno'?
Did they not test the psu's correctly? They did find something odd with the Antec but it isn't too clear what it is exactly.

THG did a 24hr stress test which is way way more intensive than the typical reviews.

There you go again with the ad-hominems.
Until you can dig up and find one instance where I have been trolling in psu threads, you should keep your potty mouth zipped.

as my last post for a week, let me say

"BWAHAHAHA"

are you kidding me? i gave you the benefit of the doubt with "i dunno".

clearly, i know, you know, my 10 year old knows. they had to fly reps in to tell tom's what they were "doing wrong".

if they in fact were doing something wrong, then they are incompetent. if they were persuaded to pass it, they are on the take. this isn't hard stuff.

24 hours or 2.4 hours. it doesn't matter. they lined up a bunch of psus and tested them. iirc, ocz didn't pass but they didn't fly reps out to "rectiify" the situation.

again, i'm not a antec hater, but you come out saying jonnyG doesn't test as well as toms when anyone in their right mind can see that tom's is either on the payroll or...naw, i'll leave it at that. they aren't stupid so i guess they're on the payroll. :laugh:

I said THG's stress test was way more stringent than other reviews including jonny's so stop making up strawman arguments.

I just wanted to know why he made the caustic remark and up till now, all I have is simply more insinuations.
