This would be the most practical as you could do what he did and attach it to the side of your case.
I think it was overclockers.com that had a guy using some sort of radiator that was used in something like a water heater or furnace or something  just something that some people have in their basement I really dont remember.
But it looked like a 1 inch dia. copper pipe that was 8 feet long with hundreds of square aluminum fins brazed onto it.
Naturally he ran it passive. Sorry but for the life of me I cant remember what its intended use was...
This isnt very practical though as he had to put it in some closet to just hold it up. |
What he used on the side of the case is an automotive "condenser". Looks like off of a GM. Condensers are far more restrictive than radiators, and most of them are made out of aluminum. Not to mention, you'll be lucky if you found a used condenser that didn't already leak.
