    I could use a good PA140.3 to mount on top of my Antec P190 case.

    I was planning on having 2 loops in my new setup, one for my 2xGPUs, and one for my CPU (and maybe NB), using TWO 2x120x38mm rads... but, I don't feel like squeezing it all into a case, and truly want the best single rad out there that can fit inside the top of my Rocketfish Lian-Li case. I want something that will provide enough for a dual GPU + quad CPU system that I may have in the future. Otherwise, I gotta do 2 separate loops (which sounds stupid for a nice fit in a case)

    The newest Lian Li huge towers use a row of 140mm fans in their front door. It would be a real dream if a radiator fitted on these without any modification... wink wink. The fan bolt hole spacing is of importance there (for dual and above).

    Don't forget 140.4, if you're gonna go with 140mm you might as well go all the way :P

    well shure. but it dont think any case would fit it internally as it would be too long. 120.4 is about as long as i would go... 140.4/120 would work tho...

    No doubt Marci will keep an eye on this thread. Though i doubt he'll have any extra time to produce that 140.x series, he's got enough trouble producing enough 120.x's for everyone.
    A good idea for ANY hardware outlet would be to produce:
    * rad grills with mounting bolt holes that fit the Thermochills (and holes to mount everything on a case panel)
    * shrouds that have 140mm fan holes (that would ideally match the Lian Li 140mm front fan pattern)
    * conversion shrouds / brackets to mount the PA series vertically in 5.25" bays, or other places (tops of some watercooling-ready cases)

    too bad they rate threads in stars instead of...

    Unfortunately, the only real source we (XS) had inside TC was Marci and he no longer works there. TC is also under new ownership from what we hear and the new owner and their intentions are not known at this time.

    I think a 140.4 would give TC a big advantage over competitors. I'm not saying the 120.3 isn't better than the MCR320, but the cost... if TC had the 140.3 radiator, and it were as successful as the 120.3, I think a lot more people would be going for this new extreme high-end solution.

    Besides, my MCR320 isn't nearly filling up my case width. A 140mm would be awesome.

    Im sure they have new desings but I dont think anything is going to happen until supply catches up to demand on there current product line. (wich is still a top performer in its form factor)

    my PC-X2000 is made for 140 wide rads... im holding off on watercooling it until someone releases a 140 x 3.... I think the feser monsta sounds too thick... I just want a standard thickness rad but 140 wide for extra surface area... hope t/c reads this oh and G1/4 BSPP ftmfw

    Never say never....

    perhaps it won't be thermochill, maybe a different company...
    but it will happen...
