good heatercore?
 
i have a heater core form a laser so its number 2-668 on the heatercore4u site (http://www.heatercore4u.com/2-668.htm)

anyways i just want soem info on if this is a good heatercore to use or not i got it for free so i would like ot use it plus i don't plan on mounting it in the case so size doesn't really matter

i also plan on using a ys tech 120mm fan on it (rated at 135cfm) wil lthis be adequate?


thanks

135 CFM can“t cool Tjernobyl, but should be enough for a computer.
I guess there are more parameters than just flow to consider, but I leave that for the more expereinced.

Do you have copper in your system? As that appears to be a aluminum rad the battery effect could be a problem. You'll need to use a alum. waterblock to avoid that, and that means lower performance.

That fan will provide plenty of air.

the fins are copper for sure not sure about the actual core yet

Just make a small scratch somewhere it won't show on the tanks and on one of the tubes. That will tell the tale. If it's a all brass/copper rad it will do you a good job.

i checked and it is all brass and copper
