I'm in the market to purchase a 480mm long 60mm thick radiator and there's quite a few models. I was thinking about getting the EX 480 by EK because I've got a lot of EK stuff and not really had issues with their products.

But I did some looking around and I did find some quite exotic looking radiators like this one:

And it got me thinking, this has pure copper fins that aren't painted, I wonder if the cooling is better? - I really don't know much about the radiator landscape or what's good or what's not. Perhaps someone more informed can help me out.

I'm really looking for the best in these dimensions. Thanks :)

I'm already using 2 x 480x35mm radiators in my case and there's already room at the top to fit a thicker rad I measured and such. So I just want to replace it with a thicker one for better performance. But I really got no clue which is the best etc

I guess I'll scour for some reviews.

The performance is okay but could be better. Plus the top rad is really old now I got it like 8 years ago and I'm concerned about its age, with it being above all my other components if it were to begin leaking and so forth.

I figured if I'm replacing it anyway might aswell get a thicker one. Are push-pull really necessary? I'm using EK-Varder fans but only in a push configuration on the top at the moment.
