This poped up on Swiftechs site without even so much as a press release............... It might have been a early posting mistake as Swiftech normally always has a press release statement before products show up on their site.
Anyway, if you're into water cooling and are looking for maximum performance, this radiator might be something for you........

"The MCR320-QP (Quiet Power) series are extreme-duty liquid-to-air heat exchangers designed to be used with three 120mm fans, and specifically engineered for high-end liquid cooled Personal Computers. They are the result of months of research and development focused on optimizing thermal performance and audible noise characteristics with low to medium airflow types of fans.

The MCR320 -QP series heat exchangers have been engineered to meet today's PC industry highest thermal loads, quality standards, and low noise requirements at competitive prices. "

Neat but where the hell would you put it? Might as well get a rad from a small car

I think if someone needs cooling that bad they should move to phase.

I know just where I would put it............

In the pic below of the front of my system, there's 3 120mm fan opening just waiting for a triple radiator..............

yeah, i would use my dual version if i had room, but i don't. that's why i traded it for a 120mm black ice extreme

Sweet........you could run that with no fans

What temps are you getting now?

With the low speed (1000 rpm) on it right now, I'm getting a delta of 5-6c between idle and load with both the CPU and GPU OC'd.........

Not at all that bad IMHO. It's slightly better than I was getting with my heater cores, I was getting a delta of around 8c with them. That's at a room temp of around 21-22c.

Completed install............

Nice!
Air cooled chipset....and only a 1C rise under load

What resivoir is that? Is it your own design?
I'd love to have your case!!! -> all that space.....

I build my wn rez most of the time, unless it's for a review or something like that.
The case is great, tons of space and airflow. On normal days nothing really gets hot, but it's been getting hot here the past few days and I'm to cheap to turn on the AC................
