Dual Proc Cooling

NeosPirahnis · 12-17-2001, 10:11 PM

allrighta, I have a Tyan Thunder K7 and after Christmas Im going to buy a new radiator. From what I've read on OCWC's site, the highest performance radiator is the Black Ice 2 with the LPD mod.

My question, running a dual athlon 1.2 rig, without peltier's what would be the most suitable radiator to cool two procs, the Black Ice 2 or the black Ice Xtreme?

Heatercore? I've not seen anything that idicates a BI2 will beat a good heatercore. Not to mention they're cheaper. The BI is for looks and easy mounting.

even the original black ice will be fine in cooling dual athlons. Remember Joe tested 2x 120w pelts with it, and got decent cooling, 2x cpu's will produce a lot less power than 2 pelts.
