I've been on a mission to upgrade my system to the best I can get that's out there. A little tired of pissin around with "not quite" as good as it could be. I like overkill to be honest
![]() I've been looking at pumps and more importantly the best rad I can find. I really like the Vapochills but haven't been able to find them in the US other than at Danger Den and of course they have no stock yet ![]() ![]()

I was told that Dangerden is sole North American reseller of thermochill. I don't know if that's true or not; it didn't come from either DD or Thermochill.

While the vapochills are better than a BIX of the same size, a large heater core can out perform them as well. I'll grant that they are not as nice looking however. If the best performance is what you seek you may wish to look at some heater cores that can take 2 X 120mm fans per side, and at much lower cost.
For a pump I'd suggest the Iwaki MD15rlt or MD20rlzt to you as extremly good, but also quite expensive. The Swiftech 600 with it's plug and play ease + high performance is also one of the best choices. What blocks are you going to run? |

Thanks for the replies.
Blackeagle, I have a MCP600 at the moment and love it. Switched from a Danner Mag3 which was too big, too noisy and was mother to get sealed. I'm looking to add 2 HD blocks for my scsi drives that's why I want to improve my pump to something more capable of handling a CPU, GPU, NB, and 2 HD blocks. A lot to ask of one pump. And the price thing isn't really an issue, I've always been of the mind that if I buy one of the best on down the road it will save me having to buy 3 or 4 cheaper ones. I like quality in other words ![]() As for the heater cores, yeah that comes down to looks. I want something that looks as much quality as the build is. Heater cores are just too ratty looking for me. If they weren't so expensive I'd get a Fluidyne heat exchanger for a shifter kart. VERY nice rads with -AN bungs and better build quality than any comp rad or heater core. They are around 300 bucks though ![]() ![]()
