Just wondering what people's thoughts are on this topic.
I'm looking at starting (very) early planning for a project and am exploring my options. What I'm planning is setting up a watercooling setup using the Silverstone TJ08 mATX case.
As far as I can see it my options are either a 120.2 rad mounted on top of the case or a pair of 120.1 rads using the cases 120mm fan mounts. Aside from issues with flow restriction I just need to know if I'd really be shooting myself in the foot if I wanted to use the dual rad setup to keep everything internal. The case is so small that I don't see flow being a huge issue with a decent pump, just not sure if the cooling properties of say a pair of Thermochill 120.1's would be grossly inferior to a 120.2 of the same radiator.
There is still the chance that I'll get really adventurous and use a pair of 120.1's AND a 120.2 outside to cool the whole system but we'll leave that for another day.
