radiators

Which of these options is best:


- 480 + 360
-480 +280
-360 + 280

Or between them is a big difference? I do not want to overpay

In terms of pure heat dissipation, obviously the 480 + 360.

Unless you're running an abundance of equipment at full load 24/7 then the difference between either of the three won't be much if anything.

With the 360 + 280 you'll save a little money on the radiators themselves, and then on having to buy less fans for them as well. You'll also save some room.

you can run your entire system on a single 360, but your temps will be higher than running any of the two radiator setups. it's that simple. more radiators + faster fans = lower temps.

what are your goals?

Best bet get the 360 install and check your temps not happy add rad.

But note your generally not getting better then 10 or 5 degrees above ambient. And those 5 degrees are the difference between basic and heavy setup.
