ResRad - Performance and Advice?

smgoh · 23rd September 2005, 10:51 AM

Hi guys,

I was browsing through Radical.com.au and was thinking of buying the three tap system when I found this:

ResRad

Has anyone heard or tried this out?

Is it any good or should I go with a 3 tap system?

Thanks

I wouldn't expect too much out of it, it'll probably let you run silent but your still looking at something thats not quite in the arena with a proper radiator fan combo. I suppose it's possible it might do better than a passive radiator though.

i got me one of those resrads. nicely supplied with hose fittings in all the right diameters. and the price is reasonable too.

sofar it seems to have taken about 2 degrees out of the water - running completely passive - which is about as much as one could expect. and ive turned down the main fan over the radiator a bit too.

so at the moment im running at 43 degrees with an overclocked 3800+ clawhammer at 2598. its also running d2ol 24/7.
