HELP! Can't pick which radiators is best here

Confused! Need to decide quick between radiators

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Should I get the BIP II
http://www.voyeurmods.com/index.php?action=item&id=1454

and is this the same radiator performance-wise?? :

or screw BIP II and gamble with this similar product:

Swiftechs MCR-220QP

if you are going for performance, you may wanna look at the BIXII. For about $15 more, depending on your noise tolerance, because these need a little bit stronger fans, www.dangerdenstore.com has them for the cheapest that i can find. Otherwise, i dont think it matters between the swiftech and the BIP, they have similiar performance, and you are talking maybe 1 degree, if even that.

Hardware Labs makes the BIP and BIX, so who you buy it from is meaningless (except for price). I'm not familiar with Swiftech's rads so I"ll leave that to someone else.

Due to noise, I'm going with non-extreme versions ( have 2 x 120 evercool AOC 80 cfm max fans) and was wondering if the different dimensions of the swiftech had different cooling.
Does this list look equiped well enough? I'm order the MP-05 LE and 7/8" tubing elsewhere. Am I missing anything. It's my first time build. My 170 has finally gamed at 2880 on air at 1.55 to 1.575vcore. I'm ordering in the next hour:

My vote would be for a PA120.2 (even tho it's not listed)but for price/performance go with the BIP2. Also I'm hoping you meant to say 7/16" tubing instead of 7/8".

kimochii72 · Feb 9, 2006

Yeah, sorry, 7/16 inch tubing over 1/2" barbs as people recomended.

Anyone who has the swiftech radiator and the BIP II could you post your comments please on the performance of these?

Why dont you goto your local Autozone and buy a 77 Bonneville Heatercore (w/o air conditioning) for around $21?

Thats what I have done.I havent set up the WC solution yet, but just from looking, the heater core is a great purchase,and produces better cooling results.The HC I bought needs no modifications, but the only modifications that would even need to be done is just to makea minor sawing slice.
