    for crapage. Still the worst design on the market, dressing it up in a bigger suit doesn't change a single thing.

    Horrors... in a "Stealth" design? Horrors...

    Where is the 90 mm thick assed radiator? That's the good stuff! Forget the Stealth design. Super skinny 31 mm radiators are crappola.

    ya know... as much as i am curious to see the 140mm radiators... i'm thinking it reminds me of all thems soccer moms driving Suburbans and Range Rovers... and seeing them trying to maneuver that in a cramped parking lot of a supermarket on a sunday is just priceless...

    is there really a need for such a huge radiator?...

    To manage with higher heat dumps? Of course?

    those are only 31mm thick though, so far less material than the GTX 360 which is a bit more than 50mm thick and the selection of 140mm fans is not really great.

    not really, a 120x3 fits easily in a case, but any bigger and you usually run into trouble, I'd rather go with multiple rads instead of something bigger than 120x3.

    Yeah i know, i was only showing them to let know they exist, as apparently not everyone knew they existed. I'm using a HWlabs 240 stealth rad, 29mm, and damn those thin rads suck a$$. I would never recommend one, not even to my worst enemy.

    Go with the MCR320. PA series is a waste when you can get 3 MCR320 for the price of 1 and Martins testing shows the difference in performance is barely there.

    I think it makes sense to go 140. You add a lot of surface area without adding much length. A 140.3 would only be ~6cm longer than a 120.3, but would have roughly 36% more surface area. Looking at my Lian Li, it's obvious that I have lots of width to spare, but not much length.

    How about XSPC rads?

    Anyway, like ppl already said, use the middle holes and it should be secure enough, it's not like the rad weighs 66 lbs (30 kilos) or so, now does it?
    You could just screw the fans to the case top with the already drilled holes... the 1st and 3rd fan would be a bit off, like 10mm each but since there's radiator surface it shouldn't matter anyway

    Friend: Do you have a spare PSU lying around?
    Me: No why?
    Friend: My PSU just blew up, I think the second 8800GTX might have been too much for it to handle
    Me: what PSU was that again?
    Friend: Antec 480w

    Even with a 600-700 watt heat dump?

    Even with a 600-700W heat dump the difference seems to be less than 1C for fan speeds that would be sane at that heat load. You can read the review yourself on Martin's site. With a 600-700W heat dump you should probably have multiple rads anyway, making the lower priced MCR's even more attractive.

    As opposed to [I apologize] somewhere in Queens or Jersey, where some [I'm terribly sorry] long haired punk [apologize profusely] Chinese or Korean kid in a [so sorry] much smaller pimped up Acura TSX or Civic or Inifinti G35 or Altima or Solara [again, I apologize] with a 5 foot high wing and wheels twice the size of their wheel wells and remaining suspension travel of 1/4 inch

    taking up two parking spaces intentionally in front of the supermarket door, even though the parking lot is capacious, but they are too lazy to walk an extra 50 feet... all because they don't want anyone parked close by in case their precious lime green or lavender purple pimp mobiles get scratched ?

    Gimme the H1 of radiators anyday

    Soccer mom FTW !

    what's this? IanY being "sensitive"?

    ha ha ha... i live in upper bergen... i drive a semi-rare car of my dreams... i get tons of "idiotic asian kids" pulling up next to me itching for some kind of response from me... we have tons of them where i live...

    no need to apologize... just need to move over the lane a notch and let me pull up next to you so we can level those tin can "fast and the furious" wanna be cars...
