I was just checking out the radiator prices and theres now x-flow bip1-3's! Yay!

If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.
Are those Quick-Connect fittings?
P.S. Linky:

1x120, 2x120, 3x120
Explain this to me:
BIP2: rated for 1155KCal per hour (2856 BTU per hour)
XFlo2: DOUBLE the performance of a PRO: rated for 1155KCal per hour (4583 BTU per hour)
Same KCal per hour but 38% higher BTU per hour? And 138% = 200% to DangerDen?

Says shown with optional fittings. Dun worry!

Otherwise, they look good.
A single-pass would work better for my planed setup. And if they do offer better performance than a BIP (whether it's 38%, 100%, or something else), count me in. Plus, it's $2 cheaper than the Swiftech MCR-220.
I wonder how it scales with different CFM & static pressure (especially on the low-end).
And its about the same price as the old ones!

nice idea, but i had hoped it would be more than just a single pass and would have a lowered FPI.. but u cant win them all..
anyway, Im still waiting for the PA120.x series..
Thermochill is still quite expensive though.

ahh give me the BIX III and I am happy.

those look pretty good

Formerly XIP, now just P.
Just out of interest and a bit off topic here sorry, why do people go for the V2000's when they could get a V2100 ?Lian-Li V2000.
A 2100 has the door right? I personally think the 2000 looks a lot sexier.

imo the 2000 looks a bit cheesy, but I guess I havent seen the entire case so what do I know
check the dimensions of the BIP2 v. the x-flowII if you want to scratch your head a bit more on the claimed performance difference.
x-flowII: 133x 277 x 25 mm (5.9 x 9.79 x 0.98 inch) dimensions
reg proII: 133 x 277 x 25 mm (5.9 x 10.9 x 0.98 inch)
unless the testing was done with an extremely anemic pump, I find it a little hard to believe the performance is that different considering the cores seem to have close to identical surface area.
Counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums.

carpe noctem.
You can tell the fin count is lower by looking, or do you know more than the page says?
P.S. Thermochill is too expensive for a poor person like me. :p
someone go ahead and count the fins, then divide the result by 13.3 then multiply by however many cm there are in an inch (3.8ish?) and get us an approximate FPI number
EDIT: I counted ~85 fins in one column so...
85/13.3*3.8 = ~24 FPI
or...
85/12.0*3.8 = ~27 FPI
so it looks to be around 25 FPI based on the picture of the 1x120mm version

trust me ists an amazing case i love mine
bloody, if that is correct, they raised the FPI... BIX and BIP has 18FPI right now..
nope bloody.. i just measured it.. 18FPI.. dont know how u got 25...
oh that explains alot.. 2.54cm in an inch dude... NOT 3.8
weapon: it would have had to have been one insanely anemic pump to do that as the BIP isnt THAT restrictive... maybe a ehiem 1046 with 1mm ID tubing.. lol

There will be Pros and Extremes still.
I wonder, is anything changed besides 2 pass > 1 pass? lol
I think they used the same body and just changed the tanks.
cart, that is exactly what they did.. while it does add some variety. im not to impressed.
I would like to see a review comparing the two though. It should have lower pressure drop, so I would like to see how it performs compared with the original BIP.
single pass will give you lower pressure drop, but you will need higher flowrate to compenstate for the lower water velocity in the radiator.
d'oh, i'm stupid... dunno where i got 3.8 from. probably from 38mm thick fans = ~1.5 inches
38/1.5=25.33 pretty acccurate
