Hello
I am looking to create a loop in an ITX size case (one i have built myself).
It will be cooling both CPU + GPU
(using EITHER a DC-LT 2600 + Eisstation 40 DC-LT Reservoir -OR- DDC Pump + ES Reservoir 1U DDC Version)
I have deliberately left enough room to mount a 280mm radiator, and enough space for EITHER configuration:
[1] a 280mm ST (30mm thick) Radiator with 4 x 140mm Fans (Push AND Pull) (total thickness 27+30+27=84mm)
OR
[2] a 280mm XT (45mm thick) Radiator with 2 x 140mm Fans (Push (OR Pull) (total thickness 27+45=72mm)
The Fin Density on both the ST and XT is 15 according to the website.
My question is, which will perform better [1] or [2]?
Thank you
