    hey all,

    i am not sure if i could do this. I have a Corsair H50 cooler and was wondering if i could get bigger rad and connect it to that without a fan. i was looking at ThermoChill PA120.3 - 360 Radiator (15mm). Any idea if that would do the trick. would i need a new pump and cpu block?

    Thanks in advance

    I've just installed a H50 into my machine today and very happy with it! I don't think that is possible.. I mean complete sealed unit and all could be messy.

    Miffers is right, the H50 is a fully sealed unit and because of this you'd be better off with a completely new loop if you need more cooling. I installed a H50 into a machine for a friend and the tubing connecting the cpu block/pump assembly to the radiator seems very narrow in diameter so it would be awkward to connect it to a different radiator.

    To add to what these guys have said, running fanless isn't really ideal either.

    But, I think we have all bases covered, sorry to disappoint!
