Auto radiator or one from online store

[FuzzyNY]

Hi I am recently building a water cooling system, I ordered the following so far,

MAZE2-2
156W peltier
PetSmart.com 700GPH Pump
and some Misc.

now the decision comes to radiator, should I get a good used auto. radiator or one from website eg. Big Mama, Black ice, The Cooling Cube ... if only performance is matter, what would you choose?

Thanks in advance!

Automotive heatercores work very well, but the cube type radiators available from DangerDen and BeCooling work equally as well and look a lot sharper . . . . all depends on how many greenbacks you have in the old billfold . . . . .

heatercores would probably slightly out perform a cooling cube or whatever, for ultimate cooling though you should take a look at the "nuclear cooling tower" article under watercooling on the front page, much better cooling MUCH cheaper. the only problem is it belches out steam, but if you can position it near a window your all set!

Thanks for the infos, I just bought a 2002 BMW heater core from Ebay for 20 bugs, can't wait for my other parts to come, :)

I am using a auto heater core with no problems. The air coming off the core is not even hot and my system runs cool....Cann't reallt do any better than that.
