Two Radiators....

Maximus Nickus · Apr 5, 2002

Ok, I have one 150Watt+ Radiator, and I'm buying an Extreme Copper 600Watt+ Radiator (over twice the power of a Black Ice extreme) should I use them both?

I'm thinking that if it disperses that much heat then it should never go above ambient... (can cool 3x156Watt Peltiers and an 1800+!!!) but hey, two better than one!

:beer:

nick - most heatercores are rated for 600Watt+ and a alot cheaper

Maximus Nickus · Apr 5, 2002

Yes but finding a heatercore is HARD!

And this rad is only £28! So sohuld i join them both? Series or paralell? I mean as I'm running in paralell I could have a Rad for each!!

What's Xtremem radiator?

Yodums · Apr 5, 2002

It would make barely any difference. I've seen an article on the frontpage where the guy runs through like 6 different radiators for 3-4 degree loss. You'll have to put up with more noise as well.

you dont have a salvage yard around?....... :eh?:

Maximus Nickus · Apr 6, 2002

Sorry spelling

For some reason here in the UK NO-ONE knows what a Heatercore is, I get glib remarks like "you want a Radiator?" and "Oh aircon cooling" man where can I get one?

All I need to know is what types of car there in (diesel petrol etc) and where!!!

lol so funny

res0r9lm · Apr 6, 2002

Max, before you post get some numbers. blackice prime 418w and blackice extreme is 919w.

Lt. Max · Apr 6, 2002

woah , BI xtreme 919 W?? better then heatercore then no?

Diggrr · Apr 6, 2002

No, the Big Momma, an admittedly smaller sized heater-core was rated at 1300 watts. My Ford one is rated at 1500...BIX is nice, and very compact, but it can't beat a heatercore.

Were did you get THOSE numbers from???

I got my numbers off a respected retailer. They said it was 300Watts, and this Radiator which I might get is 600Watts.

Heres a pic. Its 240mm x 120mm
Is it any good? Thanks!
