I was just watching wheeler dealers and they were replacing a radiator from a car. That gave me the idea that maybe we could somehow diy some stuff and use a car rad to cool say a cpu. Would it be better if they could utilise it(attaching fans as well)?

cpu: intel i5 4670k @ 4.5ghz Ram: G skill ares 2x4gb 2166mhz cl10 Gpu: GTX 680 liquid cooled cpu cooler: Raijintek ereboss Mobo: gigabyte z87x ud5h psu: cm gx650 bronze Case: Zalman Z9 plus


Listen if you care.

Logan and Wendell were talking about this, it's how they used to do it before specialised parts.

considering fin density and air flow I'd think something from the HVAC system like the heater core or AC condenser would be ideal. the radiator on the front is too spaced apart and would require lots of water and air flow.
