    The triple-triple radiator i think is more cool as a base for a motherboard rather than being really necessary

    It's kind of like building a computer around your cooler.


    hmm.. they could cool my Mini Cooper S.

    They should build a computer case made completely out of radiators, you'll just need to attach your mother board to the radiator.

    Custom built case, or just a big case... My computer case is 16" wide, 20" tall and 25" long...(40.6cm x 51cm x 63.5cm) Plenty of room. I bought it because of the size and endless possibilities for cooling and storage. It's a Thermaltake, which is a company I generally avoid, but I couldn't pass this case up when I saw it 5 years ago. I've been looking for another just like it, but haven't found one yet.

    External, of course.

    My BI Nemesis GTR560 is external.

    I remember seeing someone do this, he built his PC into a desk and then had the pipes running into his wall and down underneath the floor boards where he had a massive radiator and pump.

    Nothing new about these. They're exactly the same as the old Phobya G-changer xtreme nova lineup.

    Who needs these radiators, you can get a much bigger one from the auto parts store.

    I want that 3x3 rad to replace a side of my case please, thanks.

    Like a MoRa, right @jura11

    Finally more vendors pick up the idea of large surface, low pressure & low noise as external rads.

    I am using a MoRa3 for 5 years now w/o issues. It has many advantages ( if using Quick Connectors ). You can easily detach the rad and then move both more easily, together in 1 case that much cooling surface is just too much weight, my case is heavy enough w/o any rad internally installed. More space inside, always a bonus. Less likely to have water damage "inside" as rad & pump are external. Filling & draining is also much easier. I would never ever put any rad & pump inside any 220v device. It is already dangerous enough to do so. I love my MoRa3, I actually thought about adding a 2nd one to mostly avoid the need for any fans spinning but IRL the 4 big fans are so low noise it is not really needed, even at 100% CPU & GPU being used, which I did for mining some years ago. ....and it looks damn cool with a nice MoRa3 standing next to my Corsair Midi tower.

    Drill a discrete, small hole in corner of floor.
    Run some lines from your CPU/GPU out the hole.
    Tap onto that 9x radiator...

    ...which is outside your window.
    Get 3 phase power approved and installed.
    Get hearing protection for the neighbors.
    You're in business.

    I was actually coming here to say "you might as well use a car radiator" and then saw your comment and thought "or... I guess use it as a car radiator".

    Radiators are finally coming full circle. The first ones were the heater core from smaller cars. Now the ones for PC's can be used as the heater cores for cars. The big one however can almost be used to cool the engine of a small car.

    MO-ra3 360mm or 420mm are very nice radiators without the question

    Running one MO-ra3 360mm with other 4*360mm radiators and love it, temperatures are nice and PC is quiet

    I have built recently loop where friend running two MO-ra3 360mm and two internal 360mm radiators, his temperatures I would say are on par with my there

    If I would do again build I would go with dual MO-ra3 360mm or 420mm and add one or 2 internal radiators 420mm or 360mm

    Hope this helps

    Thanks, Jura

    I was just joking but while on the topic, I actually use 25% mix of car radiator fluid in my custom loop and it’s worked wonders for me for years. I got annoyed by the goop build up in the full water run and the constant loss of liquid which could be risky everyone you need to top off the reservoir. My custom loop from ek also came with a addictive to avoid just that and yet it happened anyways.

    Despite everyone cautioning against it online, the 25% mix of universal radiator fluid has been amazing and has kept everything more reliable. It’s been 4 years now and still going strong.
