200 mm radiators?

[justin150]

HAF 922 mid tower case announced. Now it is ugly but with 200mm fans front and top there is definite scope for water cooling this case.

What I would like is a couple of 200mm radiators (one being stackable for the top). That would be the equivalent to having a 360 and a 240 radiator - serious cooling potential and you would still have 5x51/4 front bays!

Any suggestions - any manufacturer willing to do this?

Antec has one but it's aluminum

^ and I can't seem to find a good review comparing it, performance wise, to any other rads.

[Conumdrum]

You probably won't find any good reviews by any quality WC users. It's aluminum. That alone makes it a no go.

even if you were to find a 200mm radiator made of copper it would be hella expensive!

[ecat]

Most cases are around 200mm wide so a 200x400 rad sounds much easier to fit than a pair of 360's. I'd certainly think about buying one.

200mm?
relax, 140mm rads arent even popular yet.

[LOUISSSSS]

i'd say stick w/ the normal 120mm radiators. they are the best performance/$$ and most popular right now

some guy in south africa got a custom made radiator... i'm sure you could find something like that somewhere near you, if its that important.

184mm the closest your going to get to 200mm its not that bad only 16mm off

ILikeCosmosS, that wouldn't work with 200mm fans, the proportions would be wrong (basically the same reason why a 240 wouldnt work, and the 240 would be better as the extra surface area would help a little).

Lol don't know in particular who you talking about but it does sound funny.

I know there're places here that make custom rads so i'm sure there'd be places up there. Incredible for silent system

you do realize that's a 2 x 92mm fan spacing radiator?.... that's actually less than half of the surface area of 200mm.

Use a heatercore, they come in all shapes and sizes. Trick is finding the right one.

[voigts]

I would say the same thing. Just find a heatercore that would be the size you want.

I'm not sure what car it is from, but a Fedco 2-692 heatercore measures 8.25"x7.88" (200mm is 7.87") at only 1" thick. I have a copy of a heatercore dimension list that used to be circulating online a while back. I don't see anything on my list that would be 2x200mm in dimensions.
