With XSPC and Swiftech releasing new Rads, maybe it will force TC and TFC to drop their prices? OK, I kid, I kid. :)

Preliminary prices. But if they turn out to be correct, I really hope for XSPC's sake that they perform exactly the same or even better compared to the PA120.3. Else they gotta depend on the Pa's being out of stock.
they have always made them :)Quote:

The extra couple of quid will be worth it over a PA purely for the far better paint finish, pre-tapped fan mounting holes and standard spacing. If the performance is where it should be aswell (right up there with TFC and PA with low speed fans) then these will probably be my rads of choice in the future. :)
I did - he said I could have 1 too :PQuote:

It has the same finish as the Fesers rads :up: so the paint finish is'nt new in terms of a first for any company :shakes:Quote:
