    I need to get a radiator that will fit inside a PC60. I was going to get a Black Ice Micro so I coud just put it behind the intake fans at the front. But it has 3/8 connectors and the rest of my system will be 1/2 (first water cooling system btw)

    Are there better rads I could get? Anyone else got a PC60, what rad are you using?

    Thanks

    Thats the main problem with the Black Ice Micro if you want to run a true 1/2" set-up.

    Try the Thermochill 80.1 or Themochill 92.1 because you can use whatever barbs you want with them :thumb:

    They have a standard 3/8" thread so you would want a 3/8" BSPT to 1/2" hose tail which wouldn't restrict the flow at all and still fit behind the itake on your PC60 without much modding...........plus they have a bleed screw which is handy for getting rid of trapped wind....I mean air :D :eyebrow: :D

    Or you could get the Thermochill 120.1 and put it in a topside blowhole position? Wouldn't look out of place at all with a heatkiller in front of it :>

    I can understand space being a problem with drives in the top of the 5 1/4" drives, but put them a slot down or so, and you should be fine. (Make sure they're stealthed too!)

    Will the thermochill 80.1 be enough to cool the water. Its only one CPU block at the moment but I want to add more later.

    Also can you recommend a reservoir. I was looking at the tank-o-matic but its out of my price range.
