    Okey there are 2 ways to get this working.

    Theory, so if im wrong, i welcome a good debate in it.

    The first problem is how there all connected with a 25mm or 38mm space in between. Remind you guys of the infamous paralell sli setup?

    The problem with this setup will be in people who run high pressure. The reason for this is because if your spacing is wider, you'll bypass the first rad with high pressure.

    The 2 ways i mentioned to compensate for this is to make the stacking smaller. Gabes idea and theory was to make a simple dual pass rad into a quadpass rad. Problem is in a normal rad these passes are connected very short. If you put a bridge or a passover your first rad wont get enough flow for it to be effective.

    Second way is to lower your flow at the rad. This is why i want to see tests on this setup, to see possibly, your best pump might be a D5 at setting 3 in this setup.

    Overall my original estimates is 33% low to 50% high performance gain @ a cost 125% more then a regular MCR320.

    If your hoping for the 2x gain like you would in serial, keep dreaming.

    to understand what we were talking about.

    And alot of people kept saying the heat from the first rad would heat the second and it was a waste of time.
    Ask any tester what the delta air in and out on a rad is. They will tell you its very small unless you got silenx fans.
    So no stacking is a good idea, you just need the perfect paralell or you need a low flow going though gabe's paralell.

    Oh F paralell would work in this setup too, but would require 2 stackable rads.
