hi guys, quick question really....im not sure which rad to go for, either XSPC R120-D or XSPC R120-D (V) the only real differnce being one has something called "Crossflow" and the other does not? i know crossflow for engines is better than not, but i have no idea how it would perform on a rig? any recomendations?
cheers :toast:

Dont get either of them. get an HWLabs BIP, Swiftech MCR or Thermochill PA.

XSPC rads are cheap 'n nasty BI knockoffs.

But just for the record, Crossflow, or X-Flow as HWLabs calls it, is something only people who dont understand how watercooling works buy.

I wont go into more detail because ive repeated the same info about 3 times this week. I need to ask max to link that in the rad sticky (if its not already).

You're right. I was quite impressed, when I did my test, how big the performance gap was between two pass and single pass.
