Im about to embark on some watercooling, but I don't want to start hacking into my case to fit a dual rad. As Im only looking at cooling the CPU for now is a single rad up to the job? Thanks

At the end of the day I first bought a 120.1 rad, then upgraded to a 120.2 rad, then upgraded to 120.3 rad But TBH a 120.2 rad is plenty good enough for cooling everything. I have cpu, 2x gfx cards and the chipset all watercooled. Just remember to get decent fans, like Panaflo 120x38mm fans as airflow is most important. Last edited: 25 May 2006
