Best 3.120mm Radiator?

[boon_pek]

Hello.

I couldn't google the best 3.120mm radiator so I decided to post here. Those who have experience, can you recommend me a good radiator (and fans) capable of cooling my i7 920 @ 3.8 GHz.

Thanks.

Se the pretty link about 1.75 inches above your post?

Start there.

I checked the links in the link above my post and they have several radiators except for the Black Ice SR-1.

Did you dig into the tests at Skinnees or Martins? Look into a few other forums for an hour or so?

I spent 3 months before buying my first WC part.

The amount of research you do is directly proportional to your amount of frustration.

Whats your ambient temps? Whats your fan noise requirements, are you going to pull room air through the rad or use hot case air to cool the rad? All of these factors matter.

You need to cool 250 watts under load. MAX. heavy load. Use Skinnee and MArtin to get the right rad.

Sr-1 series right here.
