The worst part about the billet testing I feel is the arrogance when he said "it wouldn't matter if it dropped temperatures by 20 degrees, it's a bad product"
Like a bad product to who? If I were overclocking and something knocked off a full 20 degrees, that's a great product regardless of price
There's a reason people bought 4090s, some people want the highest tier performance and dropping an extra thousand to get something decent isn't a concern for some
To be fair, he meant 20 degrees from where it was during testing, not from stock or competitors. Even in this hypothetical it would match other options at best despite a higher price. But the problem is that we can't know this because they didn't test it properly
