Hey all, im going to treat my sig rig TJ07 to a radiator. Whats the best quad rad around? Ive read this roundup but I didnt really think the conclusion was.........conclusive! http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=211910 My current favs are the phoyba g changer, the ek coolstream or the xspc. Whats good?
Is a quad 140mm too big for the TJ07, or maybe a triple 140mm (as it's likely to have as much, if not more surface area than a quad 120).
Not in the base, not without modding anyway. The 120 squeezes in height wise, but I have more space length ways. Phoyba g changer, xspc or ek coolstream?!
Alphacool UT60 for low to medium speed fans. I like this one. Forgot the review Mainly copper, screw protectors on the tubes and a very good price.
According to the temp comparisons at here it's the top performer at most fan speeds. If I was replacing my RX480's I'd get them.
Hey all, Just trying to get some more suggestions for quad radiators before I make my mind up. Really want something decent. What about these? EK-Coolstream RAD XTX (480) Hardware Labs Black ICE Radiator SR1 480 XSPC RX480 Black High Performance Radiator Alphacool 35281 NexXxoS UT60 Radiator 480 Any stand out performers? Im leaning towards the UT60 at the moment, but surely some other hardcore water coolers out there can help (apart from Big Elf) Thank you
Me again They're all going to perform well and to a similar level with low speed fans (I seem to recall you prefer low speed fans). The SR1 is slightly thinner at 54mm and would previously have been my first choice (I like the inbuilt shroud) but price wise the UT60 edges it for me especially with the copper construction.
Thanks big elf, your right I prefer low rpm fans. Well ut60 looks a lovely bit of kit so I'm sure I won't be dissapointed. Probably ordering within the next 2 weeks.
well I suppose the requirement is actually driven by noise. I don't care what the rpm is as long as it is quiet and still performs well. I'm thinking between 800rpm and 1000rpm
check out this radiator roundup for some good info. I like the hardware labs sr-1, and will be using these in upcoming build. http://martinsliquidlab.org/2012/04/14/360-radiator-shootout-summary/
