Aluminum radiator not getting the job done? We look at a copper based one that supports up to two 120mm fans.
Ok, anyone who knows anything about computers will know that more speed usually means more heat and more noise from the cooling. Various alternatives to standard Heatsink and Fan cooling setups can be used to help improve the efficiency, one of the better ones being Watercooling. Much like the cooling system found in cars, water is used to transfer heat and keep the components cool. Since the heat is being transferred to the water loop, the water itself needs to be cooled at some point in that loop. Generally speaking this is done by the use of a radiator and fan assembly in cars, and PC watercooling often uses the same idea. Now while you can buy some very good kits for watercooling your PC, many folks like to buy separate components, which is where
xspc.biz comes in. Right now, being a new company their line-up is small, but this will be extended in time to include other components besides radiators. Anyway, enough waffling on, let’s get a good look at their R120-D Dual Fan Copper Radiator.
