Hey guys, I'm brand new to the procooling forums, and I wish to dive head first into watercooling!
The Swiftech H20-120-A w/ radbox looks suitable for my needs, however, I'm really cautious about that black ice pro included for the rad. I'm looking for silence AND performance just like everyone else is I suppose, but my concerns are that while I can easily obtain a quieter 120mm fan for the rad, the rad may hold me back, especially with the quieter fan.
Without making this overly complex, my question is IS the black ice pro enough to cool my setup with an evercool 120mm fan and shroud in a pull config? OR would it be much better to get a dtek pro core w/ shroud and use that instead?
Can the dtek core even be mounted on the radbox? cause I have no where suitable in my lian li pc60 case for any rad at all. (not counting puny 80mm rads)

any help would be appreciated! thanks!
