It just a shame that awesome packaging doesn't do anything for cooling the hardware. ;) I've had that debate with the Fester shills as they tried desperately to reason why those rads were so much more than everyone else's rads. I'd much rather have the rad come in a plain brown box and perform great and at a reasonable cost, than come in a 7 color high gloss printed box and perform average and cost ~$20 more for same size.Quote:

Zinc and other metals probably.
Some pics before we start testing them:p:

So, it looks like the Coolgate Rads are another Eastar Creation - Mixture of Phobya and EK Rads :)
They look brilliant! Hope the price is reasonable. They've taken the best features from the current flock of rads and combined them all into one. The angled inlet and outlet tanks are a great addition for mounting the rad vertically ports down - makes bleeding much easier (MCR series). The end tank looks inspired by the Thermochill PA series as do the fins themselves. The tubes are the copper fester style and the overall paint job and shroud looks somewhat inspired by EK's design.
Just hope they didn't balls up putting the whole lot together and end up with a DeLorean instead of a Maserati :lol:.
seems quite reasonable to meQuote:

I meant the price when they get to Europe :). And those prices don't seem all that great to me. They need to be EK / Magicool / Swiftech price level from a consumer point of view. Given the low fpi theyll be best with slow rpm fans - therefore they really can't be that much better than anything else performance wise. Lots of little improvements at a useability level though.
Seriously though, $60 for a 120mm rad? That's reasonable? I'd have to disagree...
Any US sites carrying the 480s yet?
The Phobya Triple costs 80 $ and the EK too @PPC - Coolgate Price looks relative ok. Singlerad version seems to expensive - Phobya & EK: 39,90 $

Yeah that was my point :). If its about the same as the EK and Phobya in the US im hoping itll hold true over here, so significantly less than the RX, PA, TA, GTX and SR-1.
Glad someone else thinks the 120mm price is over the top :).
I'm curious as to why the single rad price is so high. It would suggest that it's the housing of the core that is the most expensive.
