    Old timers thread. How long have you been in the game?

    I too used school bus heater core (was about 14" square and 2.6" thick) with submersible aquarium pump in modified water proof electrical box as reservoir. We were machinist so milled our waterblocks ourselves. We sold a few waterblocks to other builders.

    recommendation for aio

    Nothing new or interesting. Bottom spacing on rad you posted is restricting airflow to rad. Mounting radiator in case as exhaust is actually beneficial to case cooling because it pulls air in and thru case to exhaust out thru radiator.

    recommendation for aio

    Please explain to me why 'larger blade area makes it harder to create static pressure.' My understanding is the higher the impeller area to fan airflow area translates into more pressure. area taken up by blades be the small or big usually translated to fan making more pressure. Obviously...

    Thermalright Royal Knight is air cooler. Try finding something like Thermalright Frost Magic 280.

    What is the best AIO these days? I am confused af rn...

    Sorry, but you are mistaken. Thermalright has always been at least as good as Noctua. Thermalright almost always has newer release dates for it's coolers too. First twin tower coolers: Thermalright released IFX14 in 2007. Cogage (Thermalight sister company) released Cogage Arrow late 2009...

    current best air coolers

    If you really "know about Thermalright," you wouldn't have said: In a thread about Themralright coolers. You can surely see how your statement lead me to believe your knowledge of Thermalright was quite limited. ;)

    current best air coolers

    What Strange bird said. Thermalright brand currently lists 89 single tower, 64 twin tower and 23 low profile CPU coolers. They also have 14 SSD cooler currently listed. These have from 1x to 8x 6mm and/or 8mm heat pipes. Obviously bigger heatsinks (coolers) can accommodate more heat pipes...

    current best air coolers

    Lower priced hi-performance coolers have been around for as long as they have used heat pipes in them. Thermalright has often been lower price for similar performance than competition.

    current best air coolers

    Been using Thermalright for 20 + years now. All have been delivered parcels. None came damaged. Well, I had shipping damage on a used IFX-14 that e-bay seller didn't have original boxing for. Had to bend one of the towers out about 12mm so fan would fit and had to straighten some fins.

    AIO front mounted radiator - exhaut air?

    What zandor said. If AIO will fit in top I would mount it there as exhaust with front filtered intakes.

    Noctua NH-D15 G2

    Thermalright's Venomous X BTK II adjustable pressure mount didn't get a lot of sales. Most people only use a cooler on original build and buy new cooler for new build. I'm sure if enough people wanted them they would stock them again. Bit of trivia: Most of Thermalright's tower coolers use...

    Hyte X50

    Nice! I like it... a lot!! No sharp corners and great airflow are good combination. Will be watching for it's release.

    Noctua NH-D15 G2

    Little late to the party. Sadly Thermalright has discontinued Venomous X BTK II with adjustable pressure center thumb-screw. BTK mounts were work on all thick base Thermalright coolers. I think the thumb-screw crossbar from AMD AM4/AM5 Universal BTK could be used to replace non-adjustable...

    AIO front mounted radiator - exhaut air?

    Normally peeps mount AIOs as intake, but I agree with your logic to mount radiator fans exhausting air out front with same number plus one of same size intake fans mounted in other other vents. This will give you good intake air supply, thus supplying radiator with plenty of air.
