    Which radiator should i choose?

    I'm so sorry for starting new thread, but i need help and i mean fast. It turns out, that i cann't order Swiftech MCR320. On other side i have no money for PA120.3 So, the question is: which radiator is equal to the MCR320 or better - Nexos xtreme 3 or watercool HTSF Triple. I must order from here - http://www.gamer-area.eu/kategorie,2...n-3x120mm.html

    Thanks everyone for the answers and if is necessery, i'll type, when the rad is orderd.

    Sorry for the english ...

    I have to say get the MCR320.
    Its a hell of a lot cheaper than the PA 120.3 and cools about the same.
    Well almost exactly the same, no more than +/-2c

    Yes, that's the best buy, but still i have money to buy watercool HTSF Triple, but i cann't find nothing about it - is it better, worse or equal. I'll wait for MCR320, but if HTSF Triple worth, it will be much easier.

    I don't really know much about the watercool rads. Are they a generic design?
    I would wait and get the MCR320, or alternatively look for an XSPC RS320.

    Mcr320 in all seriousness.
    Even with the exchange rate and shipping, it's a damn good radiator.
    Our dollar is low, so buy buy buy

    I think the XSPC Triple would do really well, and that's available at your shop.

    spoof, I hope I'm not too late here. I'm under the impression that the HTSF would be a waste of your money. If it's built like I suspect, it uses the old condenser style tubing that weaves it's way through aluminum/copper fins and those types make rather inefficient radiators.

    Thanks for all advice, i'm very thankful. After all i decided to wait for MCR320. I realize, that PA120.3 is the best, but at this time i'll be pleased with MCR320, after all, for now i'll use only CPU Block and NB. Again, thanks to all (:
