For $20 that looks like an awesome deal. But since this is my first water cooled rig I wanted to check in to make sure that nothing was wrong with it.

My plan was to mount it onto of my case with 2 120mm L1As, cooling an AIXA with a Maze2 block.

Would I be better off looking into a heater core from an autoparts store?

try the becooling Aquacoil

Have one in my system. For some reason I cut it in half and doubled it up! Saves space and STILL cools fine. T-bird 850 @ 1gig 120 fan at 5v and 118F max temp. You got a far better deal than I did!

In the two outermost tubes are some aluminum "Twists" used to push the fluid against the tubes. When I cut the connectors off to replace them I removed the "twists" (runs the length of the tube)got better water flow and good temps.
