In my upcoming build I only wish to water cool my CPU. What radiator would anyone reccommend for this?
I was thinking about this however will a 120mm rad be sufficient? Also, would you suggest i cool anything else on the mobo? Mosfet, chipset, anything else? My CPU will likely be a 9450 or a QX9650.

the 45nm quad produces very little heat, though i probably would recommend a 240mm radiator just so you can get as much heat as possible out.

Im an Aussie. We pay ALOT for this stuff.
Unfortunately Thermochill's aren't readily available here and are expensive to import.

I'd go for a double on it...You might get by with a single using shrouds and a push-pull with you fans, you would need some higher cfm 120x38mm fans on it, but if you have to buy one anyway try to get a 240....
I bet you might be able to find a 1976 Pontiac Bonneville heater core there...They will fit 2-120mm fans and will dissipate a good amount of heat..The 1986 Chevette heater core is another one, you can only fit a single 120mm fan on it, well 2 if you do a push-pull.. ..Barbs for heatercore? ..How to make a dual heater core fan shroud... This is a decent store that I have bought from once, its a long story... ...They have great service, the lady on the desk there is a real Sweet-Heart....RADIICAL COMPUTING
