either way it's gonna go in favor of the heater core, perhaps I will use it in-line for additional cooling.
If you add a rad, run it in parallel w/ the old one. This effectively slows the flow rate through either rad (like using a larger hose...), while increasing total flow across the two rads (less total resistance than just one rad). Rads like low flow rates because it gives them more time to dissipate the heat.

Your temps seem very high. If your system will run at 1750mhz, then I'd suggest you find a way to cool it so you can take advantage.... you're lucky. My 1333 doesn't like to cross the 1500 mark. granted, I've not had time to try too hard..
