My setup will be:
DD RBX
DD Z-block for chipset
DD maze4 with 80w TEC.
Hydor Sletz L30

I will cool a mobile 2400+ and a gf4 gpu.

I want a radiator that can handle all this with quiet fans. I have looked at DD double heater core and Thermochill 120.3 and they both seams to be good but the Thermochill costs twice as much.

Get a Weapon monstercore+shroud. It's priced higher than the Thermochill (or lower, if you just buy the monstercore) and performs much better. Or get one of those huge passive radiators, and put some fans on them. That should work as well.

Edit: Didn't see that you lived in Sweden, sorry. If you're willing to pay for overseas shipping for a core, PM him.

Also with that pump for the Monstercore. I would suggest weapons 2-302 heatercore. Plus you need a shroud for any radiator.

I would just go for a normal double heater core. The performance is great and they can be had for a very low price

that pump is not enough for that system. If you really want the RBX, you'll need a more powerful pump to make it shine. Also, hydors have questionable reliability. My friend has one and the barbs have broken off and the body is leaking.

Where do I find the monster core?

I will use the Hydor at a start. I can get like 3 Hydors for the price of one "good" pump.

The monstercore is a beautiful piece of hardware. I just got mine :D

either the Monstercore, or a DD BIX3 with 3 or 6 120 mm fans ;)
