The small diameter tubing is what that other solution (Zalman Reserator) has. It isn't what is best, mind you. It is what they packaged. The 1/4" tubing is easier to handle and install. It isn't the best performance.

The surface area of the car rad is wonderful, but if there is no fan, the airflow is minimal. Having the fins farther apart with the same surface area is needed if there is no forced air movement.
