** WELCOME MAGICOOL TO OCUK **
- Thread starter rjk
- Start date
I'm currently using one of the 540mm (3x180) rads in my setup. Was able to idle 2 gpus, cpu, motherboard and ram blocks with no fans spinning in my old build.
The plastic stop fittings they provide are horrible though. One of them leaked and the other snapped while trying to take it off.
Replaced them with metal ones in the end. But would recommend them otherwise.

Just bought the MagiCool Copper Radiator III PRO - 360 mm 
I could ask this in the cooling/clocking parts but figured this may well be a common ask from those visiting the thread so might be worth a reply here.
Could someone recommend the other parts needed for:
EK Water Blocks EK-DDC X-RES 100 CSQ - Acetal - spotted my mistake here, see post below
MagiCool Copper Radiator III - 360 mm
EK-Supreme LTX - Acetal CSQ Intel CPU Waterblock
That looks like a complete setup for a CPU loop if I'm reading it right. Assuming I have no interest in looks and simply want decent cooling (so I don't need solid tubing and pimp fittings) what parts would complete this setup (fans I have covered, was meaning fittings and tubing) on the back of a comment in the thread I'd be replacing the plastic parts that come with the rad too
I assume high flow is still the best way to go so 1/2" throughout if possible but budget minded. Aiming to land as soon after £100 as possible.
Been all the way up to a vapochill PE unit modded into a chieftec dragon fulltower case before (barton cored XP 2500+ @ 3.8ghz/ -20c ) but it's probably a decade since I messed with anything beyond air cooling. Last time I was doing water cooling we were all using car radiators and re-purposed pond pumps

I have a Magicool 360mm Rad. It's the only one thin enough to fit the top of a Corsair 600T (with modification!). It's currently cooling a HD5970 and i5-2500K, it idles delta 7C at room temp and approximately 17C when gaming. Been using it for 2+ years now and it's been flawless (just need to dust between the fins 
)
I'm glad OcUK are stocking them, it was pretty hard to get hold of them before.

Great price on the 160mm rad. Silverstone FT03 owners will be happy
