Koolance's Response to Hardware Labs "The Copper Radiator Myth"

[SDatl404]

Okay then I think I have the perfect fan for you http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/de12gf.html
Order 4 of those, and come back to tell us how you like the 72db. Oh wait oops, wrong fan 4 of those is "only" 65db. I think you'll like this one more http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/de12tfexhisp.html

If only that fan was thinner I would sooo use it!!!

One of our programs have actually yielded the possibility of using one of our racing cores (copper and brass) to generate down force due to its relatively lower pressure drop rating in relation to its HEx capacity. But that's something applicable when your car is running an average of 160MPH in between pit stops.

It isn't simply just about weight and cost in some aspects. Rally car radiators for instance are tuned to be optimized for a certain speed range in between acceleration.

There are actually more considerations as to why aluminum radiators have flourished in the automotive arena, but for the time being, it really is about costs.

Bill of Materials wise, Aluminum is CHEAPER than copper/brass radiators even if the process used to manufacture them is expensive. This is something Koolance wants its customers to believe. That's the reason why automotive manufacturers have shifted almost entirely to aluminum.

Koolance does not manufacture its own radiators, I'm waiting to get one of those and find the equivalent automotive part I suspect it shares a platform with on the market.

Just do a test with it!! Insult them with facts! Unless you don't think you can beat them.. Which honestly is what I think the case is...

Fine with me. But my PC isn't on a racetrack

I still hold by my first statement, just because the koolance rad seems to do better at extreme water temps and airflow doesn't mean it'll still win at typical PC water cooling water temps and airflow. But, to make sure, I have an idea... if the koolance rads are so much better than thermochill, and thermochill is supposed to be better than swiftech (which I have), why don't we do a little test? If you pay for the rad (and anti-corrosion additive) I'll put a similar-sized koolance rad in my PC and compare the temps. Oh wait, koolance doesn't have a standard triple rad. So much for that idea.

I have a better idea. Since I have the koolance radiator how about you send me yours and someone send me a pa120.3 and I will do the tests. Anyone in the local area would be more then welcome to come view the results here!
