slimmest 120 radiator and thickest 120 rad.

I have an ft03, working on re-building. What are the slimmest and the thickest 120 rads. No, I don't want a personal suggestion, I just want stats (this is for the people that will simultaneously start screaming about noctua fans and xspc.).

I believe the thickest is the AlphaCool NexXxoS Monsta 120MM, at 80mm thick.

And for the slimmest: I think it's the koolance 120mm rad (but it's 30fpi)

 

EDIT: Magicool Extreme 120mm Radiator (slim) is another contender.

Most radiator vendors like xspc, koolance, ek etc produce 30-45mm radiators. I believe alphacool is currently the only company to sell a wider variety of thicker rads. @lttiscancer

I believe that may be right. i was hoping there was something more like a half again radiator (45mm or so) 80mm just sounds too thick.

 

And for the slimmest: I think it's the koolance 120mm rad (but it's 30fpi)

I love how koolance provides no dimensional specs. That's fishy. thanks for suggestions

 

edit: founds dimensions. both are above 30mm in height. that's definitely not slimline :/

Alphacool Nexxxos ut60 (60mm thick version)

Alphacool Nexxxos xt45 (45mm I believe, I think it comes in other sizes, also it's a bit different to the 'ut' versions)
