Yes it's likely we will make a crossflow version of the TX240 and TX360

It's not something we're working on at the moment. If there are cases where you need a thin 140mm rad, please let me know the models.

pretty much every £50-80 case out there, specially at the top, due to using 30mm + 25mm fan hits the boards heatsink , or forced to use low profile ram with thicker 240mm rads.

Meshy C and Corsair 400c are short based cases were you cant always mount at 240aio up top and 280 is a no go and the front has limited ability for 360 aio/rads .

Thanks. We always make the 120mm versions first and if there is enough demand move on to 140mm later.

Realised you have no 140 in the RX just yesterday

Any plans to release the 120mm rad to a reviewer?

The first review went up this week. Unfortunately it wasn't tested against other thin radiators, but it still held up against the much thicker radiators.

I did see that one thank you. I meant reviews of the smaller single fan 120 rad specifically.

We won't be sending out the 120 model for review. Most reviews are of 360 or 480 radiators, so reviewers wouldn't have much to compare against.

That makes sense. Ty.

tempted by 2 of these 360 ones but my current setup is the 360 with 4 plugs in it which means re routing my pump...decisions decisions

Distracted · 22 Sep 2018 at 12:37

I'm guessing multiport at this thickness is impractical. It's a shame because multiport is most useful in space contrained builds.

fastboy · 22 Sep 2018 at 13:07

yea I have my inlet at the front of the radiator and the exit at the backside so my pump is in the back of the lian li 011 case,not sure I can re route it like I want without it being a mess

We don't have any plans for a multiport version. The space is too limited.

ok thanks paul.

Well, there's plenty of space on both faces of the end tank, just not on the edges.

tiny shame as I'll have to pair the TX360 with a EX240 Multiport now for my ultra tight hidden radiator route to work.

@vsg28 any idea when the thermalbench review will be up?

WantoN · 1 Oct 2018 at 14:17

These would be very interesting to me too room for a front rad in the Meshify is going to be tight, the extra room could be super handy. I might even be able to go 360 and keep the drive cage.

EDIT: great to see active reps in threads like this, good job @XSPCPAUL

Bluntwrapped · 4 Oct 2018 at 10:54

Can see the 120 and 240 being really popular with the SFF community.

I can see me using one in a future HTPC build.

WantoN · 4 Oct 2018 at 12:25

I wonder how this line-up again the Nemesis GTS rads. I know the dimensions differ, but for a pretty thin rad they perform exceptionally well imo.

The link to the review further up the page uses GTS and GTX rads, among others in comparison.

At low fan speeds the performance is very close, but the GTS will pull away at high fan speeds. Keep in mind that the GTS is 50% thicker and wider too.
