Default Dual Heatercore Wins Radiator Roundup

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item=328&num=2

Found this at DangerDen's home page, it should aid you in choosing the right radiator. As predicted, the dual heatercore came out on top above all the others. However, there was only a 3C difference between all the radiators.

Hope this helps you choose a radiator!

Doesn't the BIX2 have the same results?

Price makes that decision easy.

Yup, both performed the same under idle and at load, but the dual heatercore's cheaper at ~20 USD.

but don't forget modding and mounting costs - that brings it to just a few dollars under the BIX II

(i personally favor radiators over heatercores though)

Well my mounting & modding costs consisted of a hack saw and some rubbing alcohol to sweat the tubing on the barbs. My total came out to around $18 USD for the dual HC.

As long as you are handy with tools the dual heatercore is the way to go. You can make many different types of mountings and enclosures.

You can also just buy the HC shroud from DD and it's still cheaper than the BIX2
