with a res U have more coolant in the system, which does help. And I never hear my pump running in my aluminum res. The draw back to this is, the pump adds heat to the coolant.

Take DH3 for example...that system uses external reservoirs.
The external reservoirs eliminate the added heat to the coolant from the pump plus give the system the advantage of added coolant....
But how much adavantage does it give? I'm not really looking to have the advantage quantified; just the theory.
I would imagine that the coolant is at its coldest temp when it leaves the radiator. With external reservoirs, doesn't the cooled coolant sit their soaking up radiated heat from inside the case or is the amount of heat absorbed minimal and irrelevant?
