Hi,
am thinking about getting a new rad for my pc but i have to make a choice, a singal 120mm rad with no case modifiction required or dual 120mm rad with some case moding and cutting (i know nothing about cutting cases).
Any suggestions.
thanx

you can buy a nibbler for cheep which will cut case metel, and unless you are a retard you should have no problems modding the case, just draw the metal to be removed on the case and dont go over the lines, like colouring in but more manly. ha ha ha.
double check you measurments and get a second oppinion if your not very practical, or get an adult to help you, if you cock it up just buy some trim to hide the edges. 2 fan radiators exsist because there better, and if you want a better setup then 2 fans are the way to go.

however cost also goes up, u need to match what u r going to cool with your rad and money, give us the specs of the rest of your system and we'll be able to advise u better.

i am a retard of the retarded variety and i take no offense by someone who calls me a retard whose own name is mukey. its not that hard. i modded a stacker to fit 2 120mm's. a jigsaw is your best bet. go down to your local B&Q and ask someone no doubtly called "trev" for their special offers. they have them for pretty cheap. if you need any more help just ask us. we won't help.

shizen, I'd say you're best off waiting until christmas time before investing in water cooling :)
