I am currently waiting on delievery of my wc setup:
Pump/Res - Koolance RP-1000BK
Radiator - X-Flow Black Ice Xtreme II
Block - MC-TDX for Intel I7/Nehalem/1366
The flow will be pump->rad->cpu->mb->pump with 10mm (3/8") tubing. I'm going with 10mm because the mb (GA-EX58-EXTREME) is already wc ready with 10mm barbs and I don't really want any splitters/reducers with such a simple loop.
No comments on the PR-1000BK please! I happen to like the look and convenience.
My question concerns where to mount the radiator in my CM HAF 932 case. The problem (if you can call it that) with this case is that there are 3 mounting possibilities for a dual rad. I'm really partial to mounting it at the top, but as you can see in this article canucks-reviews/11304-cooler-master-haf-932-case-review-12.html, there is also the side panel and bottom (if I move the PSU up top). Will there be a large (>5c) difference in temps from top vs side/bottom given the high airflow of this case?
