I currently have a couple of Thermaltake Rad’s in my setup. I also have my CPU overclocked by 500 MHz, but I am experiencing pretty high temps, around 55-59 (full load). Do you guys think a switch to the Black Ice Xtreme 3 with three Panaflo would help bring down those temps? Or is it not worth it?
 
need more info on your setup what rads size tubing what fans what w/bs and what kind of cpu
 
Currently I have a couple of thermaltake rads with stock 120mms.Right now I'm using 3/8 tubing, might switch to 1/2 if that would help. Cpu AMD X2 4800+ 2.4@2.9 If I get the black Ice Xtreme 3 I was planning on using six Panaflo 120mms in push/pull
Currently
pump>cpu>rad1>gpu>rad2>res
 
Black Ice Xtreme = high speed, high CFM, high noise

Black Ice Pro = low speed, low CFM, low noise

I would go for the MCR220 from swiftech though as it will outperform both by a smidge and it doesnt need high CFM fans either.
