of course it can, maybe you can cool a video card as well.

Definitely. An MCR-220 would handle it equally as well, for 1/2 the price and you can still use Yate Loon fan's if that was what you were aiming for.
Good luck :)

I did for a few months...:)

I have an MCR-220 and a PA120.2....I will probably be using the PA120.2 in the rear (2 X 120's) and my PA120.3 in the front for GPU/NB.....tubing wise this will look the best (shortest)

A PA120.1 or a MCR120 can handle that.
E6600's have a heat dump of 65W stock. OC'ed, I don't think most people go past the 125W mark.
A PA120.1 and MCR120 each can dissipate roughly 150W of heat given a 1 GPM flowrate.
For cost reasons, don't buy anything larger than this unless you plan on expanding your loop to include GPU/NB/SB or whatever in the future.

my pa 120.1/TDX/D5 combo gets my e6600 to 3.71 ghz @ 1.4v load 8 hrs 52 C

It'll be fine. I've used a PA160 on an OCed E6600 and x1900xt in the same loop.
Didn't get me awesome temps on the CPU, and the GPU loaded at about 53c with max vGPU and a core at 783.

Actually, according to some testing that Bill did (http://www.swiftnets.com/Technical/Assessment%20of%20Radiator%20Performance.pdf) while he was still working for Swiftech, the MCR120 is capable of dissipating about 170W when given a coolant flowrate of 1GPM, an air/coolant delta of 10C, and using a Delta WFB1212M (72.4CFM) fan... and, looking at the data on Thermochill's website, it seems that the story is about the same for the PA120.1.

Is that my card? I ran 760 I think and was only loading 43c... Then again I had a BIP3 and an iwaki to...

That 150ish watt heat removal is at a 10c air/water differential. MCR220/pa120.2 will get you a lower water/air delta ;) But you're right, for most normal purposes a single fan radiator will work fine.

I didn't know that being off by 20W was that big of a deal ;)

Different testbeds used for his testing whilst at Swiftech d00d... so the results aren't directly comparable... s'why if you look at the ThermoChill testing data, Bill retested an MCR220 at the same time as the ThermoChill testing, and slotted it in with the results as a reference...
Go off this graph (http://www.thermochill.com/PATesting/ALLcwVSFlowrate.jpg) and note the distance between MCR220 and PA120.2 using the same fans. Do the c/w calcs to find the difference between the two... backwards eng that as a percentage, and apply the same percentage difference to 120.1 vs MCR120, and 120.3 vs MCR320 for a VERY LOOSE approximation of the difference between the two.
