If you had one hell of a pump.

It's a condenser and hence not all that great for watercooling. I would recommend you stick with heatercores or commercial radiators.

Im thinking it wouldnt be that bad. I might pick one up for $11 if it stays that cheap.

i think it would be good, paint it, it would look pretty good

What pump would you be using?

thats too restrictive for me, its a condenser not a radiator. Im almost sure a BIX with a good fan would out perform that.

techun · Apr 7, 2006

you could probably run two system passively with this, with a good pump

isnt there a topic on how to cool multiple computers?

modify it to run as a two pass, rather than a god-knows-how-many pass and it would work pretty well.

Its still pretty restrictive, what size is that? 1/4" or 3/8" ?

the copper is 3/8". The inlet / outlet is expanded though. 7/16" tubing should fit pretty decently over the copper. It shouldnt be THAT restrictive for a pretty cheap radiator. If I had another D5 + 2 blocks i'd buy one of these to cool my AXP rigs.

Probably not passive though.. not sure how well that would work exactly...
