Radiator for new build

[rufus_22]

I'm buying parts for a new build and after much agonizing over potential radiator choices I may have decided on the primary rad in the system as it will mount ( almost ) with out modding . The casei is a lian li full tower with a pair of 140 mm intake's at the front . The rad is a http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16826/ex-rad-427/Alphacool_NexXxoS_UT60_Full_Copper_Triple_140mm_Radiator.html?tl=g30c95s931#blank .. I will have to do some minor modding to the bottom of the optical drive bays but I'm up to that . So what I need to know is if anyone has any experience / thotts on this product or Alphacool in general

This isn't really a answer to your question more like a interest in what your doing are you going to do all copper setup ?

That's a good, quality rad, you should have no issues with that.

thott about doing a copper theme to contrast the black aluminium case ... was thinking of painting the frame a metalic cooper and clearcoat with orange led's but not set in stone yet .... the http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16826/ex-rad-427/Alphacool_NexXxoS_UT60_Full_Copper_Triple_140mm_Radiator.html?tl=g30c95s931#blank would be likely paired with an xspc rx 240 in the roof ... up in the air as far as ivy vs sandybridge and a singlr gtx 680 vs. multiple lower $ gpu's ..... all thotts welcome
