pH, with the dual heatercore that I have, I get very acceptable noise levles (ive gotten picky with my watercooling), I still get considerably good flow. Actually surprisingly good air flow. I use a shroud and two sanyo denkis along with two thermaltake thunderball fans (they dont do much though) and the flow is good with low noise.

But when i was running only the thunderballs i was getting literally no flow at 7volts.. but wit the new fans I get plent of flow at 7volts.

nik, I was talking about heatercores with shrouds like the one weapon makes and also the 120.3's. With similar fans the two perform rather equally as far as i know.

ph i took a look at those graphs and they are pretty tripppy. would have never though that more flow would decrease the bix and bip's performance after 1.5gpm or so.. I know that bill mentioned it a while back and he didnt have an explanation. Is there any now.

Also noticed that with lower power fans the bip outperforms the bix. Though i really didnt understand the abreviations he used for the fans so im still wondering which ones he used.

Now what im curious about is which will perform bettter in teh same loop. the single pass bip 120.3 or the dual pass? it would be greatly appreciated if you have any info on this coming our way pH. Its a pitty that your flow meter tops out around 3gpm as i am curios to see how much the flow will increase with the dual pass. I guess you could test it with the g5 as it is incredibly restrictive and will keep things under the asymptote of the flow meter
