Water Cooling Radiator

[darrencook]

Is it possible to use a small car radiator instead of a pc/watercooling rad?

Guessing the pump would have to be beefed up to cope with this? any one done it before?

Sure, it's been done. Results vary a lot though...

people do them with house and bike radiators so I don't see why not

heatcore are usually better - but it's how it all started - look at some oldschool threads on XS or around the net
to be fair unless you like fan noise a secondhand good rad for 30-40 will give muct better temps
(and my even be cheaper unless you know a friendly car breaker)

Can get a brand new Mini Cooper rad for £40 including delivery. just depending's on if its worth doing it these days..

Noticed some second hand dual pc rad's on e*cough* earlier went for £16.50 including delivery.. but not sure what would be better. as i would rather have the rad outside of the case (attached to a wall or mount away from the PC.
