I already know what type of fans I'm going to use. But not how to power or control them... That's a different problem.
But this topic is all about radiators!
1) How can I tell how much TPW a radiator should be able to dissipate?
2) Does a 280 (2x 140) Rad dissipate more heat than a 360 (3x 120)? If everything else is equal - Fin density, materials, coolant, Fan would be different but same maker and same static pressure, Fan configuration, Location,...
3) What are some good radiators?
4) What's the easiest way to flush a new/old radiator?
I'd like to find radiators that have opposing openings so that water should flow out of them easier. Instead of both inlets facing the same direction.
I've got my loop planned out with three radiators:
1x 120 Rad.
1x 280 Rad.
1x 280 / 360 Rad.
I can't find numbers to say whether a 280 would cool better (or worse) than a 360.
