Are these worth it

i just found out that black ice has these new gen 2 radiators out and there super expensive how do these compare with there previous ones or are these for more extreme use

and also why have cpu water blocks with 2 inlets from what i have heard they just constrict flow??

thanks

joke post?
if not, stickies...

Search ThermoChill Swiftech "Swiftech Storm" Asetek "Danger Den"
visit overclocker.com's forum and check out their stickies

I can't seem to preview my post.

Search a few of those terms together. Mix and match. Add radiator or heat core to the search.

As to that radiator, I would choose one of Swiftech's products, or, ideally, a ThermoChill.

Better yet, you should wonder "why" the aforementioned are superior choices, and try to answer that for yourself. If you can learn how to answer "why" questions, you, little caterpiller, will become cacooned caterpiller where you can ponder the form of why. When you understand its form, then you will know how to answer all "whys" and metamorphize into butterfly, though not so beautiful, and be free to ask and know why.

Cheers.

$150 for a quad core?!? How about 3x heater cores - and an extra D5/MCP655 to push (if you really think you need it!) - for $135 ...?

ok thanks ill prolly chose one of those instead based on ur recomendation
btw why do u need a shroud for a radiator

srry im a noob

Shrouds take away the "dead zone" encountered by having a fan right on top of the radiator, since the motor is in the middle no air can pass by. With a shroud, the dead zone is drastically reduced.

Multiple Heater Cores FTMFW!!!!


Hmm, I would think that 2 Heater cores and then a water bong would be nice as well with those pumps... But submersible would be best for the bong portion of things.

But honestly, I think that you will eventualy find that if going the overkill route... There are much cheaper ways to do it than spending $100+ on a single rad... Esp if you are using multiple rad's / heatercores.
