Ok so what's the deal with these radiators performance wise???

I read on here that there made in china and bought and whoever slaps there branding on them.I don't really care who made them performance is what i care about.

I read 1 review and they supposedly outperform the black ice rads true or false??

The reason i ask if i actually bought two of these rads under a different branding.Which i was unaware of there bad name until (today) I haven't used them yet obviously still waiting on other components.

I would of purchase some thermalchill rads in Australia only one place stocks them and they very low stock levels and are extremely expensive.But if there that good i don't mind paying a bit extra for the performance i seek.

Any info would be great!!!!

Cheers

Read the link in my sig. The Alphacool Nexxxos Radiators mentioned in the comparison under "ADDENDUM - JULY 2006 - Further independant comparative results vs other rads" are the exact same rads.

As to why no performance data along the lines of that available for ThermoChill, Swiftech et al - see my post over HERE (http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9892328&postcount=37) (cba typing it all out again)

I see well im not no pc expert.I have two of these rads and i could'nt tell you what airflow and flow resistance they are.When i put my 1st warercooling rig together the best i can do is post my temps vs air as i don't have any other rads or intend to buy any other ones unless,the ones i have are that bad.

Thanks for the that was very informative

cheers

Short answers are that the more air you blow through them the more they match the Black Ice.
If you have a lot of heat to get rid of quietly though you'd be a lot better off with a Thermochill.
