| BI II pro or the Watercool heattransformer 2 x-double ... they both perform pretty good, but i'm not sure which one is best ... but keep in mind: the heattransformer is about 2 cm higher |

| is there a big difference between Watercool Heattransformer 2 Standard-Double - EUR 64,00 Watercool Heattransformer 2 X-Double - EUR 79,00 Is such a big rad no real overkill ? Will I be able to use a single 120 mm fan rad ? At the end, It's only for 1 pelt + northbridge. and an 1*120 would be easier to build in... what about the last one ? it has allready a fan and seems very cheap. Anybody a idea on how it performs ? |

| i'd go with the watercool ht rad ... looks like it has a better finish + way better fittings if you go with the innovatek fittings ... it's a bit more expensive, but the wc heattransformer 2x double i had here was a mighty fine radiator ... cost : depends on how many participants we have in the end ... you don't have to pay extra to send it from my home adres to yours, i can just drop it off in edegem |

| watercool rad's = very high quality. The main difference between the "X" and regular version is that all of the air will be sucked through the fins in the "X" version, while some airflow will get lost in the regular version. Whether that's worth it's extra money is up to you. The watercool dual X performs slightly better than the bi pro2, but the black ice is MUCH thinner... If you doubt between the maxxxpert and the watercool, go with the watercool.

| Anyone know of a HighQ dual 80mm rad. It's for mounting on a chieftec (antec...) case so I don't have to make to much holes, and to keep the system a bit level. |
