I'm looking into getting WC can I'm stuck at the radiator, I know heatercore seems to be the best/cheaper way to go but I do not have the possibility to go that way since I do not have the tool/place/skill to do it. I'm looking for 2x120mm ready rad, I don't know if I'll go 1/2" or 3/8 ID so for now both options are opened. I've looked at reviews of various radiators but I have not seen one that stands above the rest.

I'm looking for suggestions, I'll be probably be running dual pump/loop with a rad on each loop.

Thanks for your time and expertise

Edit: I would also have input on the C-Systems CSP 750 Mark I or II (in either serie or parallel)

Of course, if you wait five more posts, you'll have access to the classifieds where, if im not mistaken, there are a few cores up for grabs.

HC is supperior BTW Its common knowledge that running two loops will just hurt your temps. Just run the pumps in series.

You mod the HC far enough using just a hack-saw. 1/2" tubing WILL strech (sp?) over the tubes of the HC with some work.
